2. Adolescents who participate in afterschool activities are less likely to be sexually experienced, and therefore less likely to become pregnant as an adolescent.
3. Pregnant adolescents with plans for the future such as college or a job are more likely to use contraception consistently, and more likely to choose abortion if they do become pregnant.
4. The younger the client is at first pregnancy, the more likely she is to have another pregnancy during her adolescence.
5. Adolescents from low-income families are more likely to become pregnant than are their middle-class peers.
