The Podcast "Who's to blame?"




                                                          

1. 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.
Some people blame Hollywood's glamorization of teen and single mothers. Others say there's too little sex education or that it's too hard to get contraception. Sarah Brown, director of the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, talks about intended and unintended teen pregnancy.

2. 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.

3. Quote 1:
My first quote is about something that the main speaker said. He is trying to say that schools need more “sex education“ and that girls should try to keep the “relationship“ to the fathers of their children.

Quote 2:

 “I just wasn’t thinking about it“, is one of the most sentences girls say after they got pregnant. Those students definitely need more education. Many students just watch the movie “Juno“, a movie about pregnancy and after that they had some “kind of education“.
