'''Teen pregnancy''' refers to the unplanned [[Pregnancy|pregnancies]] of [[marriage|unmarried]] [[school]]-age [[girl]]s, and very often of girls who conceived or gave birth below the age of consent. It is a major social problem as teen pregnancies most often either result in [[abortion]] or in the raising of [[children]] in unstable single-parent families. The increasing rate of teen pregnancies is a consequence of increasing atheistic and secular pressures in modern society. These include the influence of [[Hollywood values]] and other manifestations of materialistic culture which erode and undermine [[moral]] standards, the hostility of school boards to the exercise of religious [[faith]], and the bias of [[public school]] sex education against [[abstinence education]] programs, which are the only sure safeguard against teen pregnancy.

Note: In [[America]], terms like ''teen pregnancy'' refers to single teens. In other countries such as [[Australia]], it refers to all teenagers (usually with an upper limit of 18), regardless of whether they are in a relationship or not. There is nothing wrong with married teenagers enjoying conjugal love and bringing new lives into the world.
