Teens have sex, it is a known fact. Saying don’t do it, wait till older, blah, blah, doesn’t help prevent pregnancy in any way. Here are my ideas:
Make birth control pills EASILY available to teens.
Make condoms accessible.
If you want to promote some abstinence only nonsense you need a billionaire to back up your cause. For example, if someone said to me at 16 “Do you want to have sex with your boyfriend or would you like to stay a virgin till 18 and drive this brand new car?” I can assure you I would have the car. Bribe kids with something they want more than sex and sex seems less attractive.
Shame we can’t afford to bribe virgins to stay virgins with cars. Guess we will have to make birth control easily available.
