   This propaganda can be harmful to some people that want to have kids and do not have enough money, because this propaganda tells you that the kid will take away a lot of money from you

   Well this is actually funny haha, but at the same time it's not. Being a teen parent is very hard, because you are not prepared and you don't have money. That's why in such a bad way, they are trying to prevent us from that. It attacks the opponent, not like if kids are bad, but in the adolescence it's not good. How I prevent this? Well I don't know... condom?

   Yes, this is propaganda to have you think in a particular view. However, you simply need consistent, reliable funds to raise a child, end of story.

   I am some of the few that think this is a harmful use of propaganda. I think the baby pictures is clearly of color, which is misleading. I also think it's misleading because it has potential to be a piece of propaganda in regards to abortion. I believe there is a better way to send this message.

   I'm in the middle on this one. I think that in general, if you aren't pregnant, this could be beneficial. But if you are pregnant, it may scare you into doing something you might regret. I'm not talking only about abortion, but sadly sometimes people take matters into their own hands, they think they can't afford medical services so they resort to other options, or they might abandon their child. It's actually irresponsible because it only considers half of the story.

   I do not really know how I feel about this photo. I like it because it is beyond true, but I also feel like it is a little bit blunt. I guess getting straight to the point is a good thing though..

   I think it's pretty useful because it's the straight op truth. If you wanna have a kid you got to have money to take care of it

   Although this strikes fear, it is meant to keep young adults out of debt from becoming parents. It is meant to encourage young people to act accordingly and ties a need to have money in order to be a good parents.

   I believe this is beneficial to not only me but other teens. It pulls you in a way that you can't ignore the fact of having a child.

   The message qualifies as propaganda using advertising. This form of propaganda is helpful to teens that believe they want to have a child. They are selling a message by showing a baby with how much it usually costs to raise a child. The propaganda appeal is social fears, many teens have sex at the young age to where they think it is common but this may change their mind.

   This ad is so relatable. Many people can recall a situation where they have been annoyed or bothered by a crying baby, or can recall a story of a family member or friend dealing with an upset baby. It is not the most exciting situation, especially if you lack maturity and especially money to not only keep the baby healthy, but comfortable as well, to help take every precaution to hopefully avoid a situation like the one displayed in the ad.

   I do think this is a beneficial ad even though it activates strong emotions and is aimed at a target audience of a younger generation that would have money concerns. I don't really think this is harmful- but it is somewhat pushy and not totally clear what the organization is for.

   This is giving an actual warning/idea of what being a parent can be like. Hopefully helping teens to understand that teen pregnancy isn't a good thing.
   I was a part of the majority who found this to be beneficial.

   In this i feel like they are more encouraging for teens not to have babies because it will cost a lot but they are also saying that they will help them so they can know how much it would cost.

   I think it's beneficial because it gives teens a perspective on just how much it costs to raise a child to prevent giving a child an unhealthy environment.
