Teenage pregenancy. How many people agree with me?

yea I agree also..with SOME things you said. even though I’m a “teen” myself I’m not gonna bash you because your talking about my age group, because I understand how you feel. I’m 18 years old, will be 19 this month and I’ve never thought having a child. I think it’s disgusting that these girls that are my age and younger and having babies that they can’t provide for. I cannot agree as far as the sex thing goes..teaching abstinence is a closed book. take it from someone who’s right in the middle of it all, people in my age group are gonna do what they wanna do, and telling them that they have to have this and have that and have to be this old to do this or that is juss gonna wanna make teens have sex even more. all people can do about teen pregnancies is teach these girls and boys how to be safe !! I think it’s awful that these KIDS are having sex so young..I mean I JUSS lost my virginity last year !! I couldn’t fathom having sex earlier than what I did, I wasn’t raised that way. but the kids that are out here having sex and doing God knows what else are most likely the seeds of teen parents !! put that into consideration..it’s a vicious cycle, you ARE the result of your environment. also keep in my mind that there are plenty of teens that are abstinent also..most of them by CHOICE, and some teens that choose to wait until they are much older, have sex OCCASIONALLY, and when they do they use double-contraception [like me !!] lol. so don’t fret my concerned friend, there all still some good, well-taught ones. ;]
