How do Teenage Celebrities Keep from Getting Pregnant?
Unfortunately for our society we are currently living in the age when teenage pregnancy is pretty normal for most people. But how is it that teen celebrities are able to avoid getting pregnant? Are they too focused on their careers or are they getting abortions? It is true that we do not hear too often of teenagers like the Olsen twins and Hilary Duff getting pregnant, although we all know that they have boyfriends. Are they just more into practicing safe sex than normal teenagers their age.
Well let’s analyze their lifestyle and that of these teens that had careers and become pregnant. Take for example young Salange Knowles sister of Beyonce’ Knowles. She is not married with a child and her career seems to be pretty much on hold for the moment. Even though many people feel that she was not that great to begin with she still seems to have given something up because she got pregnant. And like most teens she chose to get married to the baby’s father. Hopefully the marriage will last, but we all know that she only did as well as she did because of her sister. Anyway back to the topic of teen celebrities getting pregnant. I think that one of the main reasons that so many of the teenagers do every thing they can to protect themselves from getting pregnant is because they are obsessed with their figure and what the media and others will say. Even one ounce of weight can mean a hold or an end to the career. Take a look at the Olsen twins Mary Kate and Ashley; they have obviously had eating disorders because they are so obsessed with staying skinny. Nowadays it seems that a lot of teens are getting thinner and thinner, so when it comes to getting pregnant it probably is definitely on the back burner. But even if they did accidentally get pregnant I am pretty sure that those who are close to them will do everything that they can to protect this information from the media, especially if they choose to get an abortion and not have the baby. I am not stating that any of the teens mentioned in this article have done that, it just seems odd to me that they are always dressed in a manner that portrays them to be very sexual people and yet unlike the rest of the teens their age they do not get pregnant. Maybe one day they will actually let the other teens around the world in on their little secret.
The bottom line is that if it really is all because they keep themselves too focused on their careers, and that in turn forces them to use the right kind of protection then maybe this is something that parents of the non famous teenage population should do. If it will help to reduce the amount of teenage pregnancies around the world then it would definitely be worth the effort.
