This honest video reminds young viewers that adoption is a viable option for pregnant teens. Teens speaking from their own experiences tell viewers that adoption offers young parents a second chance at life without the constraints of raising a child. More importantly, adoption also offers an infant an opportunity for a successful life that may not have been possible with a teenage parent. The video discusses what an adoption is like for a pregnant teenager. Both open and closed adoptions are discussed. Adoption Option also dispels the myth that adoption means that the baby is taken away and never seen or heard from again. For all the sexually-active teens who believe that “it could never happen to me,” this video is an eye-opener. It reminds teens that pregnancy can happen to anyone. The good news is that there are options.
