Annotated Bibliography

MLA: Pardini, Priscilla. "'I Chose the Baby'." Rethinking Schools Vol. 17 No. 4. Summer 2003: n.p. SIRS Issues Researcher. Web. 11 May 201

 In the article “I Chose the Baby“ by Prisculla Pardini has information about Teen pregnancy rates are down, but without supportive schools, the consequences for young moms can be devastating. Because millions of American teens get pregnant, and half a million give birth, every year. At that rate, one in every four teen girls gets pregnant before turning 20.

It is worthwhile form me, because it gives me a specific discussion of the devastating toll that teen pregnancy takes on the child welfare system and stresses hat reducing teen pregnancy rates.
It gives me specific data and shows me the most effective way available to reduce childhood here in the States.


The podcast “Who’s to blame?“ is 17 teenage girls at Gloucester High School in Massachusetts who, it said, got together to form a "pregnancy pact." The story has since been disputed by families of the girls and by the mayor, but it's raised a lot of discussion about planned teenage pregnancy.

It is worthwhile form me, because it shows me how many unplanned pregnancies happen and what these girls are trying to do about that.
It tells me that schools need more education, because the data that this audio discussion gives me is higher than I thought.
