Contraception For Teens...

[jaamal]

Should doctors be allowed to prescribe contraception for girls under the age of 16? I read that in the UK in order to lower the amount of teens having sex they would not prescribe any type of protection to women under 16. They believe that this will lower STD rates, pregnancy rates and more. Also if a doctor gives any type of contraception to a girl under 16 can be brought to court.

Do you think that this will work? Also does anyone believe this would ever work in the US?

I do not think that would work. Handing it out isn't encouraging people as much as it is protecting them. I think in fact it will lead to an STD increase, as well as a pregnancy increase. Enough people now just say "screw condoms".. What happens when they cant use anything at all? I doubt they'll stop having sex.

 

[jaamal]

I think it will really increase he rates of pregnancy at first, but then people would see that they are not helping themselves. I like sex and kids, but dont want kids or STDs.

 

[jackslips]

i think youre overestimating a lot of people.. i know that some people will be cautious and they will be too smart to risk it, but other will not care. i dont think any good will come of not giving them protection when theyve already made the decision to do it.

 

[jaamal]

I might be giving to much credit, but eventually anybody that isnt retarded would at least stop untill 16... (I hope)

lol0ololo9l I loled irl,


ya it should be illegal in britan if its like that why change it STD rates are going down anyway

 

[MCR__Ftw]

Lol at that ^

I don't think that not handing out birth control/condoms would help keep teen pregnancy down, I think it would increase if anything. I mean if they really want to have sex than not having protection wouldn't really stop them. I mean there are already a lot of pregnant teens around here, so what makes you think that, no protection would stop them? I bet a lot of them don't use protection, and they just get lucky. Although that's just my opinion on it.

 

[Xtreme Geek]

erm what exactly is contraception, I figured its some STD prevention medication but could someone explain it for me?

 

[Clashfan]

Things that stop conception; condoms or birth control meds.

 

[wow own u]

medication works better =p

 

[dpunk]

Definitely won't work. People will still have sex whether its safe or not.

 

[OldFinn]

If they didn't issue teenagers contraception,
what would happen to teenage birth rates?
Do you believe teenagers should be pregnant?

 

[caseyscoolerthanu]

i think thats fucking dumb, doctors need to give help to anyone who needs it reguardless of there age

 

[Xtern]

i dont think it will make it any better.

LMAO>>>XD
Well, I think it might lower the amount of teens having sex but increase the rate of teenage pregnancy and STD's.
Reason, Taking away the safe sex thing from them would turn off allot of teens, but you always have your curious ones who would do it anyways and not care, therefor spreading STD's and getting pregnant.

 

[jaamal]

Lets say this happened here, And they fined any person under the age of 16 with any form of contraception 250$ would you stop aqfter getting fined.

 

[Recnuob]

LOL! Not giving contraceptives isn't going to stop sex tbh...
they'll just find other ways...
That is, doing it without.
Using a knife?
or using gladwrap

Excatly and most parents say don't have sex, but if you do make sure you use prtection. If protections isnt available sex shouldnt be an option....
