An IUD needs to be inserted by an OB-GYN and only if you have had a pregnancy in the past. It's not a procedure that can be performed in the school nurses office. The NYPost isn't the most sterling of sources, so they may have got that fact wrong. The rest is correct (and I think should be applauded)
Women demanded and protested for the legislation that gave them control of their own bodies. Without any regard for the rights of a father the feminist movement fought hard to wrest full control of any life concieved in a womans womb as hers alone. To the detriment of the fathers and children involved she now has the legal power to treat that fetus anyway she sees fit up to and including the termination of that life.
And you have the nerve to come here and cry about the burdens of that responsibilty. You reap what you sew

A woman can produce one child per year. A man can father dozens. It only makes sense to mandate birth control for the gender that can do the most damage.

IUDs are safe, effective for teens, study finds - Vitals
Intrauterine devices are safe for teenagers, according to a new analysis of more than 90,000 women who used the long-term contraceptives.
..
"It shows exactly what many of us have thought all along, that IUDs are great options for teens," said James Trussell, who studies birth control methods at Princeton University in New Jersey.
Divroced and Widows are single mothers. What do you people intend to do about THEM? IDIOTS. Ban divorce! Force these women to marry their husbands brothers, according to the BIBLE!!!!!! Jerks.

From the OP link:
"..more than six out of 10 women who give birth in their early 20s are unmarried."
We're talking at birth here and women in their early 20's.
I have not read this whole thread, but I believe the title of it should be "Single Dad's who don't support their kids are making us broke".
9 times out of 10 they don't have any money to give. Low/no income 20-24 year olds tend not to get pregnant by millionaires. They get pregnant by equally broke men.

Allowance doesn't go very far these days.
They don't get usually pregnant by high schoolers either.
