Review of Works Cited

Works Cited

Algoma Family Services. "Consequences of Teen Pregnancy." Teen, Teenage Pregnancy - Pregnant, Abortion Alternative, Crisis, Adoption, Adopt, Baby -. Algoma Family Services. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.teenpregnancy.com/teenage/teen-pregnancy.html>.

-I believe this was a credible source and I would use it again. The site is partially an official adoption sight

and therefore should have some good information. The sites purpose is to give pregnant teens a home

for their baby if they can’t keep it. It also aims to give information about the consequences of teen

motherhood so it can be prevented. It is not biased and it is not opinionated.  Even though there was no

author it was done by an organization that looks to be credible.

"Barack Obama on Abortion and Birth Control." Glassbooth - Quiz to Help You Choose the Candidate That Represents Your Beliefs the Best. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://glassbooth.org/explore/index/barack-obama/11/abortion-and-birth-control/16/>.

-I might not use this site again. It had good information but no publishing date, author, or anyone who

took credit for posting the information. The information is posted to give voters information about a

running candidate, Barack Obama, and his views on abortion and birth control. However, I think the

website might be a little biased because and sounds Pro-Obama.

"Bristol Palin Quotes - The Hollywood Gossip." The Hollywood Gossip - Celebrity Gossip, News, Pictures, and Rumors. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/quotes/stars/bristol-palin/>.

-Once again, this site probably wasn’t very credible. There was no author, publishing date, or anyone

taking credit for the information. However, I really liked the quotes. The title of the website being

“Hollywood Gossip” probably should have thrown up a red flag that this information may not be the

best thing to use for a paper.

Caldas, Stephen J. "Teen Pregnancy: Why It Remains A Serious Social, Economic, And Education Problem In The U.S - Research and Read Books, Journals, Articles at Questia Online Library." Questia - The Online Library of Books and Journals. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.questia.com/googleScholar.qst;jsessionid=EF2F410F6228A37184EA24BB494804C8.inst2_3a?docId=5000177804>.

-I would definitely use this site again. It had an author and was an online journal. It may have been a

little opinionated, but it also had facts in it that I was able to extract. The site, Questia, is also part of

Gale Research. Gale is a well known online database that has to be paid for and many schools give their

students access to it for research.

Christensen, Sue. "Teenage Pregnancy." The Family Connection of St. Joseph County Inc. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://community.michiana.org/famconn/teenpreg.html>.

-I would use this website again. It had an author but no publishing date. The website is a non-profit

organization that states their purposes as to “1) collect, process and disseminate information that

enhances the quality of services offered to children and families; 2) to facilitate increased understanding

and communication between families and the organizations that serve them; and 3) to strengthen

family participation in and impact on the public and nonprofit institutions, collaborative, and agencies in

our community.” It sounds like the site is not biased and only aims to inform.

Peter, Sams. "Teen Pregnancy and It's Effects." Article Alley. 22 Feb. 2008. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.articlealley.com/article_479589_17.html>.

-I would use this site again. Yes, it was a blog, but it was purely informative. It had a date of publication

and a person who took credit for writing the article. Anyone can publish an article on this site, but the

information I found in this article checked out with many of my other sources which gave me

confidence in the article’s credibility.

"Quotes from The Daily Beast." Daylife: Helping Publishers Do More with Less. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.daylife.com/quote/0eOe5HabNb9hp?q=Bristol Palin>.

-I believe this site was credible. People can post on it, but they have to go through the website to be

able to be able to be a part of the publishing and writing team. They are a selective site with only 26

employees, and to me this seems to be a legitimate news site.

Salamon, Maureen. "De-glamorize Teen Pregnancy, Experts Say - Health - Kids and Parenting - Msnbc.com." Breaking News, Weather, Business, Health, Entertainment, Sports, Politics, Travel, Science, Technology, Local, US & World News- Msnbc.com. MSNBC, 20 Oct. 2010. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39759635/ns/health-kids_and_parenting/>.

-I would use this website again because it is a well known news site with a history in the media.

However, with news sites I guess I have to be careful with their opinions and bias.  This particular article

was informative with little to no bias and the use of national statistics.  

"Sarah Palin Quotes." Famous Quotes and Quotations at BrainyQuote. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/s/sarah_palin.html>.

-I probably would not use this website again. No one took credit for posting the information so I don’t

know where it came from or if it’s credible. However, they had a lot of good quotes.  

"Teen Pregnancy Statistics - Pregnant Teen Help." Pregnant Teen Help - Teen Pregnancy Statistics, Prevention and Facts. Web. 23 Oct. 2010. <http://www.pregnantteenhelp.org/articles1.html>.

-I would definitely use this website again. It was a sight aimed towards pregnancy prevention and facts.

It gave all facts and no opinions on the subject.
