Just out of interest, what have you been through?

Uhm...yes they should? You want teen pregancy? I ask myself what could possibly be the cons of teenage girls not being able to have babies if they don't want to? I pity the fool who thinks otherwise on this topic.

no this would never work in the US, because so many teens are having sex, and mothers and fathers seeing the only way to control there kids is tell them to wear a condum and go on birth control.

I would just lock my daughter up keep my eye on her... No child wants to have sex in front of there father... That would mess with there mind...

To be honest i don't really care because this is a UK/US thing but i think it should be legal to give out things like the pill and condoms.

lol i reckon as soon as u get to 14 and 9 months you should be able to have sex, its just natural every animal {exepct the self sexing ones} have sex all the time when some animals are at the age of 7 monthst they start to have sex so why shouldnt humans?

 

[jaamal]

Becasuse some animals can not contract aids, also animals are not as wise as us and we should not degrade our bodies...

umm lol are the uk dumb y stop contraception when atleast kids are usin git if they wanna have sex i think this is ridiculous as kids dont think sometimes and will use no contraception if it is not available so they should keep it on the market to teens

In the US I don't think it'd have as big of an effect as in other countries such as the UK or New Zealand. To me, the US just seems like a more reckless country.

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

Well, more teens are obviously having sex regardless of what they teach in sex ed about sti's and pregnancy. Some people think that schools shouldn't go into birth control at all because it promotes pre-marital sex.

I think teenage pregnancy is a very serious matter that is not treated seriously enough. Contraception is not as available as it should be, as many people feel too embarrassed to go into a chemists and buy condoms etc. ideally, contraceptoin and all aspects of sex should be taught from the age of 10.
you should'nt get pregnant as soon as you are legally of age, unless you are prepared to give EVERYTHING up and can give the baby EVERYTHING it needs.

it's your body, you decide to do what you want to do with it.

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.

Yah, condems are less pleasureable, i dont use them (im under 16). i think jack is right tho STD's and pregnancy will increase, leading to no father for a child most likely. and that child grows up with no father ( i have no father, it sucks ass) and its kinda sad my dad doesnt even care about me (he probably does but hes in jail for 7 convictions of murder...

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?

The only doctor prescribed contraceptions are the pill and that thinger under ur arm... Neither of which help to lower std rates... They dont even work all the type to stop pregnancy... If you want contraception goto a petrol station toilet they have condoms on the walls for sale 1$ for two...

And girls under 16 CAN get put on the pill if their periods are irregular or too strong in flow.... at least in Aus this is true... Personally i think that by providing the pill to girls under 16 with no medical issues to require it is almost like showing them that sex at a young age is the right thing to do.
