How Technology has effected the Problem

Technology has greatly effected teen pregnancy. Women have also become empowered because of the technological advancements due to teen pregnancy. There are the contraceptives, like the birth control pill that women can take to prevent pregnancy, which is almost 99% effective. There is a shot, a intrauterine device (which is inserted into the women's arm for a period of years until they decide they want children again), and women's version of the condom called a diaphragm.

When women finally received all their rights by the government this was the final thing that they needed to be independent. They could now do anything a man could do and not have to be attached to anyone. This is why teens probably get pregnant more often because they know that they are not tied to that person forever anymore.
