If these people (children) on here are so worried about getting pregnant then why are they having sex? I just don't get it. Can someone help me out here?

People don't necessarily PLAN to have sex. It is a physical urge and it evolves in a relationship. You want to be with somebody of the opposite sex, and find yourselves making a lot of body contact, and eventually find it hard to resist. Then the regret comes later... and the worry about pregnancy. They CAN plan NOT to... but sometimes they don't think about that.

It's not always children that have sex. Have you seen Maury? It's men also that have unprotected sex with women and then when the women tells them she's pregnant the men runaway and deny the whole thing. People are just scared of consequences and try not to think of the possibility of a baby but enjoy the baby dance. People have sex because the mood strikes. They also might not have condoms handy. But people have sex because everybody has a need for it.

it isnt more common then it used to be , in the 60's and 70's sex was very common at a young age and unprotected just that pregnancy was so taboo that it wasnt talked about or accepted, so all adults who make out these teenagers are sooo stupid and wrong are ignorant what there doing isnt right thats obvious but to make out like you have never made mistakes or done anything stupid and rectless as a teen is hypercritical and the fact that adults are acting like this and putting them down and saying things like there all little sluts or they should close there legs just makes it worse because who then can they turn to for advice and to learn about safe sex and what it means (btw i dont mean this to the person asking the question it was a good question )

It's truly the parents fault! I think parents should raise their children with morals and values and actually talk to their kids about sex and drugs! So many parents don't. And they should also expect that even thought the may have taught them all the morals and values in the world that it is ultimately their child's choice and should also talk to them about protected sex, birth control, std's, and pregnancy!

itseems to me it is the "in thing" right now...and the way everyone goes about it, their teachers and adults they look up to expect that they are doing it...after all, so many "grown ups" are doing the same thing, you know, sleeping around, married or not....very sick and sad. this is a rebelious generation that have never been spanked and do not understand love. they want to be loved, and want confidence, so they look to the wrong places and no one tells them things like lust is wrong, or that being alone with the opposite sex leads to stuff...morality is being replaced by "freedom." this world is messed up...it is becoming like Rome and Greece right befor they were destroyed. they are lost people with little identity or pupose who think they came from a rock. they are all a chance of nature and there is no afterlife so nothing matters, so they think. they do not understand God and how he loves them and created them special. shall i go on?

They are just not ready for it. Just like the men and women who are afraid of childbirth. They get pregnant but are afraid of the whole process of getting the baby out. Kids want to have sex but are scared of a baby and growing up to take care of it. People are just scared.

Alot of people don't think about what they are doing and the consequenses! I'm only 16 and i have a 4 month old son. And yes i was scared but now i have a beatiful baby boy. I'm doing fine with taking care of him and my boyfriend is still here. We're doing fine and I'm not dissapointed in the chocies i made. So please don't judge people it's not nice and i'm a good mom. Also my aunt was 30 years old and got pregnant and she was scared so it's not just young people.

Every hear of the phrase "Hindsight is 20-20". The heat of the moment, hormones, peer pressure, thinking you have all the answers and are a grown-up because you having grown up feelings all lead to kids having sex way to early only to realize well they aren't as grown up as they feel or think they are. In the end they are a bunch of kids with little moral direction or parenting and a desire to belong to something or someone.

Well... theres always the peer presure, lazy to get a condom , they want to try it and its pretty normal for anyone to want to feel loved by the oposite sex. Its just part of hormones and stuff. And you do lots of crazy things and experiment when your young too, probably one of the reasons. I hope that helps. And yeah... I agree with you. Don't do it if your that worried about having sex and getting pregnant.

I agree completely. My husband and I met young... and we waited to have sex. We didn't want to mess up college with a unplanned pregnancy. I think the world today portrays sex to our teens as something as everyday as going to the movies. I was watching mtv today and couldn't believe the commericals for condoms that had skits of high school kids hooking up just like it was a weekly chore. I'm scared for what it will be like in the next 10-15 years.
