This paper explores the portrayal of teenage pregnancy and teenage mothers in the British print media, particularly focusing on daily newspapers. It aims to investigate whether there is a correlation between media coverage, the depiction of teenage mothers, and the transfer of ideology by the media. The paper also examines how this representation contributes to cultural values and the maintenance of existing power relations. It delves into whether reporting on this topic has changed over time, particularly in recent years, and whether there are political motives behind shifts in coverage.
The first chapter provides an overview of the current situation of teenage pregnancy in the UK, drawing on data from official sources such as the Office for National Statistics and international organizations like Unicef. It also discusses the trend of declining teenage pregnancy rates in the UK since 1998. The second chapter examines factors associated with teenage pregnancy, focusing on the role of social background, deprivation, and class in the UK. Chapter 3 analyzes newspaper articles, exploring the depiction of teenage mothers in the print media. It provides examples from various newspapers, including The Times, The Sun, and The Daily Mail, to demonstrate how these outlets construct images of teenage mothers. The fourth chapter delves into the broader meaning of these representations, drawing on theories from cultural studies to examine the function of stereotypes and their role in shaping ideology and discourse.
This paper focuses on the key terms and concepts of teenage pregnancy, media representation, ideology, stereotypes, power relations, and cultural studies. It examines the portrayal of teenage mothers in the British print media and its impact on public perception and societal attitudes.
