Daughter
In the United States, the birth rate is 105 sons to 100 daughters which has been the natural birth rate since the 18th century. About 80 percent of prospective adoptive parents from the US will choose a girl over a boy. In fertility clinics that enable sex preferences, daughters are usually preferred over sons. In the traditions of various Abrahamic religions, Luluwa is regarded as the first daughter to have ever existed.
Teenage pregnancy in the United States
Teenage birth rates, as opposed to pregnancies, peaked in 1991, when there were 61.8 births per 1,000 teens, and the rate dropped in 17 of the 19 years that followed. 3 in 10 American girls will get pregnant before age 20. That are almost 750,000 pregnancies a year. Nearly 89% of teenage births occur outside of marriage. Of all women, 16% will be teen mothers. The largest increases in unintended pregnancies were found among women who were cohabiting, had lower education, and low income.
