UUgghh the prewriting phase

I have actually started the term paper and if I do say so myself I feel I am off to a very good start. I hate the prewriting phase the most I think, because everytime I go back to it and read what I have written I feel I need to change it. I am trying very hard to come up with a strong solid thesis statement but it is very hard, here is what I have so far....

Many of today’s youth are making very grown up choices, with very severe repercussions some of which may have long lasting effects, none of which teenagers are ready for. These include but are not limited to regret of choices, possible domestic problems, continuing chain of events, and monetary downfalls.
Please feel free to leave comments I need all the help I can get. I also need help finding some good solid info so if any of you are doing Preventing Teenage Pregnancy as your topic and found some references that may not have worked for you please let me know they may work for me. I have to get a feel for the APA format soon and am hoping to get my reference page done and over with and not have to make any changes. LOL I am hoping everyone else is under way on their paper and that it is going smoothly.Other than doing my paper I am busy trying to stay on top of my daughters assignments in 7th grade as well she has 2 projects due within a couple of days of each other and it is sad because I do not recall having this much homework when I was in jr high. Well I do not know what else to say except I better get my toosh in gear and get back to my paper. Hopefully I can keep this momentum going and hit all the deadlines. Thanks for listening and hope to hear from you all soon.

  1. Jennifer I like your thesis statement and it so true that teenage girls are making grown up decsions and not realizing that it come with a high price to pay. Most if not all of them are having babies for all the wrong reasons and do not realize that this a life long process and all the choices they had before becoming a teenage parent go out the window and a new xet of problems enter. They think it is cool to say that they have a baby at 14, 15, or even 16 sometimes at 13 but whatever there reason is they have to realize later on this might not have been a good choice. How do we prevent it is hard becasue they think they are adults when they make these types of choices and what really happens is that their parents are left to support the new edition. i just wish these youg girls would see that it is not all the simple and maybe sit down and watch MTV program Teen Mom and see what these girls really go through. It is sad and I would be glad to read your paper and hope to show it to couple of teenage girls who I know are putting their self in this destructive path. Good Luck and if you need any help let me know.
