Abstract

This article examines the issue of adolescent pregnancy as a problem. Through a historical journey across journalistic sources and a legal corpus, the authors show the current naturalization when this topic is addressed. A guiding issue is the inclusion of the voices of those involved, to think about strategies thatkeep them company (which is understood as an important demand from the adolescents).
