Teens and the outcome based on the laws on minors and abortion If you had a teenage daughter, how would you feel if she came home and said she was pregnant? Many teens fear to bring home a bad report card, getting in trouble at school, or even bringing home the boyfriend.

Child prostitution is when a minor, a person who is under the legal age that is determined by a particular government or society, engages in performing sex acts for financial gain. Usually the child prostitute is a victim of kidnapping or a runaway and is under the control of some sort of pimp.
