...have you ever had sex? Sex is fun.
Also, teenagers are stupid.
Also, younger adults are stupid.
Also, middle aged adults are stupid.
Also, older adults are stupid.
Stupid people will do stupid things. Smart people will do stupid things. As well as the fact that sex is a pretty important component in romantic relationships regardless of age or steps taken to prevent pregnancy.
Youre going to be against abortion and say "well just dont do it!" As your alternative?

Other people driving drunk is a problem? You like driving? How about you just not drive. Not a single drunk driver will run into you. Problem solved!

It just doesn't work - you are not going to stop people from doing something that is otherwise harmless and fun. Why not allow measures to be taken to further keep them safe, rather than pressuring and yelling at them when they make a mistake? Its part of the learning process.

I think sex is almost a forbidden fruit type deal. You arent allowed. God forbid you have a little fun. (Hah I made a joke)

It just seems more logical that as this problem seems to occur more often, we take steps to help solve the problem rather than trying to completely cut off the activity in the first place.

Edit: I think what would also help more is less sheltering. I know I can be open with my dad about any problems regarding this subject and I know that if I can be open and say hey, I need this, or hey, I messed up, it can get taken care of. Which is part of why I have birth control pills myself.

I think in a more public-school-like situation and with a less open family, I wouldnt have gotten the same things I needed and especially in a more social area, crap happens. And if I dont have the tools to take care of it it becomes a problem. Regardless of which outcome is wanted.

 

If you don't want a kid, use protection or appropriate medication to prevent it. Pregnancy isn't a "Hey I changed my mind" sort of deal. Of course there are instances where the mother didn't intend on being pregnant so to me there's a lot of gray area on the issue.
