There are a couple of reasons teen pregnancy is down. More are choosing to not be sexually active. Another reason too is because parents are being more proactive is taking their daughters to the Dr and getting them put on birth control to help avoid it or purchasing condoms for their kids too.


What would you say to a woman who got pregnant as a result of being raped ?

Don't have sex if you don't want a baby. It's a consequence of that action. In your mind set there is also adoption.[/quote]

Don't have sex if you don't want a baby? Babies are a "consequence" of that action? YOU don't get to tell other people what to do. None of YOUR business whether people have sex in order to procreate or just because they feel like making love. As for a child being a "consequence", surely you didn't mean it that way. Giving you the benefit of the doubt.

I think that in 9th grade all girls should get a 5 yr implantable birth control. Problem solved.

To follow their heart. Only they know what is right for them.

Naw...you're trolling me. I know differences...I'm just able to accept that there is a difference more than you.

Then there the ugly dad who says you are a loose gal and the kid ain’t his -then his parents who thinks you scarred their boy for life, your school peers who mock you if they let you finish at all. All BS! I hate they have to abort at all - those ladies have a piece of their hearts cut out, wether they admit it or not. Give them options, and let it be.
Um, this isn't 1950.

Personally I do not buy the folks who say if you do not want to have a baby do not have sex. I have known a few friends of this mind who had abortions when they were young. Now when its convenient they have a come to Jesus moment and want others not to have their escape route. Ridiculous,

Saw that church shaming 3 yrs ago - even though schools now have places for teen moms in the cities not sure it’s the same all over. Some areas have alternate schools. The others parts of shaming the girl by the darling boy and his parents is still very true. May not be 1950- but sure need to tell some of those southern states that ! Many trying to hold women back big time.
Look at the facts— For instance, girl gets raped, rapists now wants to see child on weekends True or not ?? I’m not for abortion but if that were the case -I might !

Some of this is likely attributed to abortion no diff than birth control.

Reportedly, about 50 million abortions have been performed since Roe v Wade.
50 million were not born for a variety of reasons including the inability to financially and emotionally provide for the child. Most abortions occur during the first 12 weeks.

It takes a male and female to engage in unprotected sex to create a baby. Both share equal responsibility for birth control, lack thereof.
Of those 50+ million, is it safe to say that a majority of them likely came from consensual sex?
