PAGIGING INA’Y HINDI MADALI. KABATAAN, HUWAG MAGMADALI.

IWASAN ANG MAAGANG PAGBUBUNTIS.

IWASAN ANG MAAGANG PAGBUBUNTIS!

Ang kabataan ay pag-asa ng bayan — huwag hayaang maantala ang iyong mga pangarap dahil sa mga desisyong maaaring iwasan.

Maagang pagbubuntis ay may kaakibat na mga panganib:
❌ Maagang paghinto sa pag-aaral
❌ Panganib sa kalusugan ng ina at sanggol
❌ Kakulangan sa emosyonal at pinansyal na kahandaan
❌ Mabigat na responsibilidad sa murang edad

Pero *may paraan* upang ito’y maiwasan!
✅ Mag-aral nang mabuti
✅ Makinig sa payo ng magulang at g**o
✅ Alamin ang tamang impormasyon tungkol sa reproductive health
✅ Igalang ang sarili at ang kapwa

👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 *Kabataan, ikaw ang may kontrol sa iyong kinabukasan!*
Huwag matakot magtanong at matuto — mas ligtas, mas handa, mas responsable!

📌 Tandaan: **"Ang tunay na pagmamahal ay marunong maghintay."**
Piliin ang tamang panahon. Piliin ang magandang kinabukasan. 🌟
