Over the course of my research I have come to terms that the information I have already learned and have had in my head since my first sex class in middle school was at least a good place to start. One cite I would like to focus in on, was a website for social workers. I feel like it was extremely credible and a great place to get information on for both influences of teenage pregnancy and the possible outcomes of teenage sex because the author gave information from a good amount of other sources that are credible and really emphasized the reasons in her own words. She knew what points she wanted to cover, and how exactly she was going to portray the critical information. I feel like social workers are a good resource for this kind of information on teenage sex because they get to see a lot of the bad outcomes of teen pregnancies when children are neglected first hand.
"Parents, peers, the media, access to education and services, and a host of other factors influence decisions and subsequent health outcomes. Understanding the context of decision making and the social influences provides significant insight for effective health interventions" (Clark par. 4).This really helped that pretty much everything the author stated in this web page article was right in line with my thoughts. It helped me feel like I was prepared to do research on teenage pregnancies and sex because I had a bit of background information and sometimes that is necessary to know to look for in research. You have to know what you know, and know what you are going to have to look for later on.
