So many questions in the teen section are about whether or not they are pregnant after having unprotected sex. But WHY would you have sex without condoms when the consequences are so serious? Is it a failure in the sex ed programme in your country? What rational reasons can you give for doing something so utterly stupid? Does anyone have any ideas how we can amend this situation among teenagers?
By the way, check my other answers - I'm not against teens having consensual sex (and I don't care who is). I just want to know why they have so little awareness, in the 21st century, of what is involved.

I have no idea why teenagers don't use condoms. I'm 17 and I have used a condom all the time every time. It gets me so mad when teenagers are so self centered and ignorant!!They make the ones that are trying to be careful and responsible look BAD!!

What do you imagine about young ones having sex? (dad and mom + youngsters) = they ought to apply protection reason they could get pregnant or some STD. Do you imagine that maximum persons of young ones in KS4/highschool are having sex? = i comprehend i'm not (it really is not by using selection ....) I even haven't any clue, i do not ask human beings about their sex existence. What are your non secular perspectives about young ones having sex? = not some thing .... i'm Catholic yet i don't believe of of sex and faith together. ought to condoms be available in the nurses workplace or in condom machines in the bogs? = particular why not? Condom machines sound somewhat weird and wonderful for a severe college (makes me imagine it really is a few variety of brothel "ordinary get entry to condoms") i imagine it really is high quality for them to be in the nurses workplace although (i do not even comprehend the position the nurses workplace is in my college, it may have already got condoms). young ones of at present, what age did you or are you making plans on dropping your virginity? = i'm 17 years previous and am waiting to bypass at any time, everywhere, with merely about some thing human+woman.

I feel that this day in age too many people are so accepting of mere children walking around with babies. It seems that so few, if any, pregnant teens are giving the children that they are creating too early up for adoption. Abortion is being used as a form of birth control and having babies is just another way of irresponsible people taking advantage of the many "freebies" that our government makes so readily available for them. It is very sad and I am thankful to you for raising this heart-wrenching unfortunate fact of life. You would think that with all of the readily-available information and technology at everyone's fingertips, teens would take a moment and read up on all of the diseases and problems that are so prevelent in having unprotected sex, but I guess that it is easier to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear. Hearing "I didn't think it would happen to me" is getting pretty old, and I am sick of paying for children of teenage parents with my tax money.

It is not awareness that is the problem, it is the selfishness of the people involved, or the pressure of the moment, or the stupidity. Unfortunately the last is the most prevalent. Remember, young people are invincible- - - it will NEVER happen to them (yeah, right---that's why we see the pregnancy posts)

Good question. Most of them I am guessing are uneducated or from low income families (you can tell by the way they type).

the reson is because the parents are not in touch anymore. they only care about themselfs and their childern run free. everybody has that "all about me "attitude and could care less about their fellow man.

Not only is it pregnancy, they don't think it would or could happen to them. And let us not forget about STD's out there.
