Sadly teen pregnancy has not decreased at all it is on the rise .

it's up by 80% and getting higher

------------------------------------------

Actually, teen pregnancy rates in the United States declined 37% between 1988 and 2005. In 2005 - 2007 there was a marginal increase of 3%. However promising these numbers may seem, the United States still has one of the highest birth rates of teenagers between 15-19 years old. Teen mothers account for 11% of all births in the US and a Birth Rate of approximately 53 out of every 1000 teen girls was reported in 2002.
