This paper is a phenomenal study that used the descriptive phenomenological method developed by the American psychologist Amadeo Giorgi in the early 1970s to address the alarming rate of teenage pregnancies among nationalized high schools in the division of Surigao del Norte. Thus, the researcher opted to investigate this particular phenomenon. Whereas, as to the record of the Guidance Office of the concerned schools, there are about 17 young girls who have stopped schooling due to unplanned pregnancies and have returned to school after giving birth to their babies. Hence, the goal of this study is to explore and describe the lived experiences of pregnant teenagers about their pregnancy and how they balanced school-life roles. Guided by the grand tour question “How do you describe school-life balance as a teenage mom?” a scientific investigation was undertaken.
