proper education would go a long way in helping the problem too. I can't believe the number of girls 15-18 who have said....They weren't sure about how you get pregnant. You would think in this day and age when little is left to the imagination on tv and in the media.....That they would have figured some of this out. That is why education both in the home and in the schools really needs to be stepped up. If they don't know how you get pregnant....Then they probably are not real sure how not to either.


i know many young women who have been told so many times that bcp's don't work that they'd rather have unprotected sex that go through the bother of actually learning about birth control methods, and their real effectivness.


i believe you are correct on this. Again....Education is the key. The sad thing is....Just because someone is "physically" mature enough to have sex....Doesn't mean they are "emotionally mature enough. That means sometimes things like bc and condoms are not deemed as important by them as they truly are.


right. My personal belief is that children under the age of 18 shouldn't be having sex anyway... Of course not many people follow that advice lol, but if I ever have kids, that's what I will teach them: about sex, how a woman becomes pregnant, what birth control is - and my daughter will be on the birth control of her choice when she starts seriously dating a guy - the effectiveness of it, and the options that are available if something goes wrong. I would always support my theoretical daughter, no matter what she chose. If she was under 18 yeah... I would make sure she knew the pros and cons of keeping the baby. But I would never force her to abort, and i'd never kick her out if she kept the baby. However, I would not monetarily support the baby; just her as is my job until she is 18. I'd help her fill out paper work to get milk vouchers and whatnot... But I wouldn't baby-sit the child while she went to school either, especially if she was still in highschool. I'd make her find a babysitter for the day. It would be my grandaughter, not my child, and as such, my daughter would be responsible for raising it, not me.

Extremely EHEALTHy
I am not a parent yet but seeing my mom and what she says if my daughter needs help whether is to baby sit the child or give her money I would do it no matter what. I would absolutetly discourage her from killing a human being through abortion because in my home I will teach to value and respect the human life whether their fetuses or whether they are in a wheelchair.
