Brenner Children's Hospital researcher says PSA campaign about risky sexual behaviors a success

mpacted whether parents intended to discuss these issues openly with their children in the near future.

Although teen pregnancy rates have declined in recent years, North Carolina ranks 9th in the United States for the rate of pregnancies in teens ages 15 to 19. In 2000, 95 of every 1,000 teenage girls ages 15 to 19 gave birth in North Carolina. Although there were decreases in the adolescent pregnancy rate through 2003, there was a 2.4 percent increase in the rate in 2004.

"A good deal of progress has been made, but we still have a long way to go in educating our children and their parents about risky health behaviors," DuRant said.
