I agree with you. I feel teens should be able to learn from their mistakes. I was a young teen once and regardless if people said no, I still did it anyways. Here I am 19 years old with a son & a step son, my own apartment & car, a loving man, and I'm in school. In live you have to experience things especially mistakes. No one is perfect! Everyone makes mistakes and its up to you to learn from them.

It might be your choice to have sex. It might be your choice to abuse your body in any time.
HOWEVER, you are not in charge of the fetus/baby's body NOR is it just your mistake. The baby has to suffere the mistake.
Tax paying adult, as myself thank you very much, has to pay for your stupid mistake all because your ignorant "I will do what I want" selfish ways!
You are the reason why teens have a bad rep!
Getting pregnant is NEVER a mistake. If you choose to have sex, you are choosing the risk of pregnancy. If you choose to not protect yourself, you choosed to be at high risk of pregnancy.
It isn't a mistake. It is on purpose when having sex. It was preventable. Something could of been done by waiting to take care of your own. Not with assistance of welfare/tax paying dollars and making your own parents by for a child you can't raise on your own.
Girls who say "My body do what I want" are the ones who continue to drink, smoke and do drugs while pregnant. Then when the baby is born with problems, they complain no one wants to help them and feel bad for them. Uh hello...not that hard to figure out.

Its a big deal because teenagers are stupid and so are you for having unprotected sex and becoming pregnant. It's not judging its trying to show teenagers (you included) that what you dont think matters will matter in the long run. Its about educating people. Do you know that some people dont even know all the different types of STDs? Grow up. When you have your child lets see if you will be ok with him or her having sex at 15.

I am not a parent but I do know how much it costs to simply take care of myself and sometimes I can't even do that. I am 24 years old, I have two college degrees and am working on a masters degree and I had a very hard time finding a job AND paying rent in Chicago. The reason why people are concerned with teens having sex and even more seriously, getting pregnant is because THEY CAN'T TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES OR THE BABIES THEY ARE BRINGING INTO THIS WORLD!! I wish you all the luck in the world because you are going to need it baby girl. I hope you have a lot of support so that you can go on and finish school and raise your child to be a responsible human being. If you can't take care of that baby on your own other people are going to become responsible for that child and that then DOES BECOME SOMEONE ELSE'S PROBLEM. Teenagers are inherintly selfish and therefore don't typically think of the consequences to thier actions. You have probably thought about the consequences that getting pregnant has on you at this point, but have you thought about who else that baby is going to affect?? You can't even drive. How are you going to take that baby to it's doctors appointments? Get to the grocery store for food? You get my point. I am not trying to make you feel bad, but I do want you to realize what you are asking in your quesiton. I am in full support of people being in control of their own bodies but as a 15 year old girl you have not made a wise decision in having sex (unprotected - which is a WHOLE different story).
You are complaining that people shouldn't be judged based on this mistake - I am not judging you but I am saying that teenagers having sex and then HAVING BABIES is societies problem. Someone has to take care of those babies when the parents fall short and someone will have to take care of you if you get HIV or Hepatitis or some other horrible STD from being irresponsible. Whether that be because we have to pay for your welfare of foodstamps or if we have to pay for your healthcare because you can't afford your babie's hospital bills - THEN, it becomes someone else's problem and at that point - whoever that 'someone' is gets to have an opinion about teens having sex!

It is not just about getting pregnant. When I was younger the worst that could happen was getting pregnant. Most problems could be solved by medication. Now you could die. Aids is not a joke or someone Else's problem. When you engage in sexual activity with someone you are open to any STD they were exposed to. In a very real way you can be exposed to any STD 50 or more people were exposed to. At this time most STD require more then a quick trip to the Doctor. The risk of HIV and VD, Crabs, etc.. is very real. Being an adult gives you more experience to be able to judge situations and way any risks you may face .

Most adults, myself included, want to guide younger people without having them hurt. I don't think it's about judging others, its wondering why teens haven't learned from all the stupid mistakes we older people have already made. Teens just aren't able to really grasp all the adult feelings, needs, and relationships that sex seems to bring along with it.
Religion plays a big part into how people view the world. Sometimes it is helpful - like avoiding people and situations that will only hurt us in the long run, and sometimes it is not so helpful - shunning the people who need our help because they made a mistake.

It isn't that I have so much a problem with them having sex. I have a problem with them getting pregnant and thinking that the tax-payers should be responsible for their child so they can sit on their lazy butts and jsut collect welfare! I know too many people like this. Why should my tax money go to pay for young girls to go screw around. I think stay at home moms should get some kind of kick-back from the governement instead so we don't have to pay for daycare!

If they can learn from some one elses mistakes and not do it that would be great but they would rather learn on their own, with that being said they should know all of the conseqeunces that come along with it and they should be taught about the neccesary precautions to take before having sex

Maybe if you were a parent you would realize that parents want the best for their children. Having sex an getting pregnant at a young age ruins your life...It also makes the parent responsible for what their child does, and makes them responsible for the baby. Grow up...you wouldn't want your kids havign sex too early.

I used to believe the same way when I was a teenager but now it does mean something to me. I'm paying 9 times out of 10 for that unwed pregnant teenager to have her baby and be on medicaid and wic and I don't even know her or her baby. I don't even get visitation. The father does and I'm sure that he isn't supporting her or the baby.
