This week's focus is how teenage pregnancy prevention affect abused children in America. 

Disclaimer: I have never experienced living in a foster home, nor ever been a pregnant teen; but I do know what it was like being abused as a child and how this topic still relates to me as well.

Next week I'll disclose who/what impacted me so well that I refrained from teenage pregnancy.
