Fourteen and Pregnant: The Un-loved Daughter

This is a story about the events that led up to me becoming pregnant at the age of 14. In this book I address numerous subjects about children and how they learn to see the world around them. Touching on topics of early childhood development, attachment styles, parenting roles and responsibilities. Discussing subjects of abuse within the family structure and how it affects those involved. I I continue to talk a bit about what happens when you don't heal from your past and how you as a parent can set your child up for success or failures. Further into the book I write about the lack of sexual education that I received as a child growing up in the 80's and 90's. All my life i have wondered why we don't embrace femininity instead of hiding from it like its a plague. My purpose for writing this book is to help caregivers understand what happens when children grow up in homes without love, guidance and proper sexual education. When children are not properly instructed and left on there own understanding it leaves them in reckless situations that could be life threatening. Regardless of how parents feel, sex will happen. Children need to be educated properly about there growing bodies and not made to think they are wrong about the way they feel. They need someone to explain to them what is going on with there bodies. It can be very scary not understanding the changes that take place from adolescents to teenage years. Sexual education is a big topic that a lot of parents get anxiety over, however it needs to be addressed so it can be done properly. Not talking about sex will not stop your child from experiencing sex. Teach children about there bodies so they can embrace there own growth and development. Without proper education they could end up with a lot more issues than just being 14 and pregnant.
