How on Earth would misinformation about birth control play into teen pregnancies?


On the list of reasons for teen pregnancy, misinformation from Christian groups is pretty far down on the list. The Bible thumpers really can't compete with basic horniness, increased permissiveness towards underage sex in society and the general ignorance and folly of youth.

Feel free to keep reviling your favorite scapegoat, though. God forbid I stand in the way of your brave fight to expose the insidious role of Christians in the downfall of Western society...

You are, of course, ignoring the Christian groups' opposition to any teen ever recieving a decent sex education clase. Without these evil people attempting to prevent enlightenment then we'd likely see fewer teen pregnancies and fewer STDs.

Hmmm..as opposed to back 100 years when the age of consent was 12 or less??

A basic lack of knowledge about the consequences of sex, or about the workings and availability of contraception surely lead to an increase in teen pregnacies. All the horny teens in the world having sex constantly would not lead to many teen pregancies if every single girl was taking contraceptives and the guys wore condoms.

If kids are having sex, many of them are going to mess up and get pregnant (or impregnate someone). Hell, the same thing goes for adults, who are more responsible. All the education in the world won't change that.

Put the "@" as "AT" and "." as "DOT". Something like "thisismyemailaddess AT myISP DOT com." This will defeat the spiders heavesting e-mail addresses from the Web. Mostly anyway.

So because a teen happens to be married, they no longer suffer the consequences of less education due to looking after their child? Wow, that is interesting to know.

If you are talking about the Christian disinformation at school and in the media, I agree with you. However, I think that there is a deficit of sexual education from the parents, whereas they could be the most efficient vector in the area.

If the parents are believing that their precious kid won't have sex before long, or if the parents don't teach about sexuality to their children, the child will be in a state of ignorance. Especially if the other possible figure of authority (the school) gets challenged.

Most of the problems that make teen pregnancy a bad thing are alleviated if the teen is married to adult, as was the usual case a hundred years ago. I think the details of this are obvious, but let me know if I need to explain what makes teen pregnancy bad and how marriage alleviates those problems...

I've had several close calls, ie. waiting desperately for her period to arrive. I've been lucky, to be perfectly honest...

I think we're in agreement on this. Parents (or parent, in many cases) certainly have a tough fight on their hands given the way society is today, but many aren't adapting to these new challenges very well.

Why not, I can sue you for retaliatory discharge from employment because I refused your sexual advances.

Suing is never an issue. Actually having damages, and having at least enough of a legal and factual basis to get beyond pre-trial disposition is another story.
