Teen pregnancy

1 and 3 girls will be pregnant by the age of 20. That is a really messed up stat. I don't get how so many people are having so many kids where it is so easy to get contraception. Birth control, condoms, not having sex and many other ways can prevent you from having a kid. But people do not care. They think it wont happen to you, but it will happen to the ones who don't see it coming. Having kids can change your life forever! You cannot return a kid, or throw it away, it is yours till the day you die, or get it taken away by DCS.
I wish I could go to schools and talk and try to help these teens who are having sex. But education system is so afraid to talk about sex. They are afraid of what the parents will say, those parents are the ones whose kids are having sex without them knowing! Damn, we live in a society that is based on Sexs, Drugs , stealing, gambling! We need to teach our young people how to live! We need to give them resources! There was none in my highschool , no place to go get condoms or anything like that. You had to learn on your own! WE NEED TO END ABSTINENCE ONLY EDUCATION. I am sorry George Bush, TEENS are having sex. They need to learn to protect themselves. Protect from having kids or from getting STD's. It is something we need to do! Why don't people understand, they are soo against Sex education until their kid gets pregnant! I hope that schools systems will learn that we need better sex education!
