This article I found is about the 'Juno Effect' on teens through the media. A couple of issues discussed are MTV's '16 and pregnant' and also 'Skins', in the article they are saying that it is almost a fad to become pregnant and interact in a manner that these shows portray because it is so visualized throughout the media, and teens are geared to watch these shows. "Rand Corp. researchers say that they have documented the first long term link between sexual content on television and teen pregnancy. Teens exposed to the most such content are twice as likely to get pregnant before they're 20 as those exposed to less of it. Earlier research says it happens in two ways: glamorizing sex and showing inconsistent use of contraceptives." This is very true, these shows and movies alike will show sex to be safe and always fun and a lot of girls and boys will both treat sex like its only a game, when in fact there are numerous risks that are involved with sex and young girls need to take precautions. ""Just say no" is no more effective in the war on teen sex than it was on the war on drugs. The only answer is reasonable discussion of the consequences of pregnancy - regardless of how it's handled. In that, too little information is far more harmful than too much."
