Context-Driven Question
Statics show that about 800,000 teens are pregnant each year while nearly 50% end up having an abortion, many decide to keep their child. Keeping a child at such a young age many teens are faced with struggles. Does being a teen mother mean one doesn’t have the same ability or knowledge to raise a child just as well as an older mother would? How does this affect a teen’s life?
The teen mom might be mature for her age some teen moms are more mature than a twenty year old is.
The teen might have raised her own siblings.
Having a baby might make the teen mom better her life for the baby which is bettering herself as a person.
Teen Mothers are not responsible enough and haven't had the experiences as an older mom has.
A young girl may have had experience with younger siblings and many may have raised their own siblings. Some mothers that are in their late twenties are still not mature enough to have a child. Many teen moms better themselves for their children’s sake.

Bridge’s mom was gone, his father was long gone when he was two and he never heard back from his grandma until he was a senior in Harvard Law School. He asked his grandma Katherine why she didn’t come to get him: “ She admitted to having thought about it, but was sure that a little boy had to be happy living in a big house with a pool”(Bridge 297). Although he didn’t care about any of that and all he ever wanted was someone their for him grandma said: “I never had all that to give you sweetheart” (297). His senior year in law school he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease. This disease is a cancer that starts in cells called Lymphocytes.

Andrew Bridge’s life was a struggle since he was born but he made something out of himself without anyone's help.
