Did you read that it was Ewe men who made the teenagers and adolescents pregnant? The Volta region is peopled by non Ewe men as well.

Is teenage pregnancy the same as adolescent pregnancy?
Whatever the solution to the problem is to teach the teenagers to use condom when doing sex to prevent unwanted pregnancies and STDs. Is it possible to provide them with free condoms?

It's good this revelation is coming up now. However, the study did not indicate the number of these teenage girls who are in school so that support could be given them to enable them to stay in school to learn for a brighter future. Schools should intensify reproductive health and sex education to help reduce this phenomenon in Ghana. Adolescent girls who are sexually active should be taught how to practice safe sex so they don't get pregnant in the first place.

O initially did nor want to comment but u know when a woman speaks with no integrity like Becca it hurts because women are known to be soft spoken and also sensible dealing with issues even if it is beyond them. Iit hurts a lot because only a prostitute who doesn't know hee father because her mother herself was a prostitute and cannot tell which of the numerous men is response for the pregnancy. People like this mostly end up not getting husband because of they are only good to be used and dumped and nothing else. I pity the kenkey and of children u will bear with this evil character since such innocent children might end up not having fathers
