It cannot be argued that teenage pregnancy is a directcause crime. i.e the moment a teenage girl becomes pregnant, they do not also instantly become a criminal.
However, it is true that crime rates are higher among pregnant teens. But it would be wrong to conclude that teenage pregnancy results in crime, since it may be that crime results in teenage pregnancy. Or both of those results could be externally influenced by another thing, for example (randomly), number of piercings. It may be that those with more than three piercings are destined for teenage pregnancy and a life of crime, however the stats currenlty available do not go into that level of detail.
