- yellowapple 4y agoI can't tell if this comment ignores the abundance of teenage pregnancies or assumes that the progeny thereof ain't graduating from college in abundance.
- fred_is_fred 4y agoThe rate is 16.7 per 1000 as of 2019 and continues to decline. That's not an "abundance". https://www.cdc.gov/teenpregnancy/about/index.htm https://www.cdc.gov/teenpregnancy/about/index.htm
- yellowapple 4y agoYou and I have very different definitions of "abundance", then. 16.7 out of 1,000 births would be 611,936 for 2021 alone. Also, young adults graduating from college right now probably weren't born in 2019. You'd want to be looking 20+ years ago, wherein the teen birth rate was more than double or even triple your figure: https://opa.hhs.gov/adolescent-health/reproductive-health-and-teen-pregnancy/trends-teen-pregnancy-and-childbearing https://opa.hhs.gov/adolescent-health/reproductive-health-an...
