According to the behaviorists,
disordered behavior is a result of a set of learned responses.
Behaviorism is a worldview that assumes a learner is essentially passive, responding
to environmental stimuli. The learner starts off as a clean slate (i.e. tabula
rasa) and behavior is shaped through positive reinforcement or negative
reinforcement.<span>

The concrete suggestions for each group would be:
- Parents
Be more open to the children in having sexual-related talk since an early age, and try to be more understanding on children's sexual development.
- Teachers
Conducted proper amount of sex-education in the curriculum
- Religious leaders
Give proper advice to the teenagers on how to direct their sexual tendencies, do not just blatantly ask them to suppress it.
- Government officials
Funding several campaign or ads to educate citizens regarding negative effect of teen pregnancy
- Teenagers
Be responsible. In the end, we have the majority control of our body and we're also the one that experience the end result of our actions.
