Eva-

Teen pregnancy occurs most often between the hours of
2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.  That is one of the reasons
the state appropriated funding to communities to offer
after school and summer break programming. 

The answers to this are not hard or so it should seem.
Keeping children engaged in positive activities
whether it be after school, weekends, or during the
summer WILL have a tremendous impact on reducing the
number of kids who end up pregnant or in trouble.  I
don't have statistics. I will leave that to the
statistical wonks.  I just have common sense and
practical experience as a parent, and an active
volunteer in youth activities in my neighborhood and
Phillips.
