Bristol Palin: Poster Child for Teen Pregnancy Prevention

My Thoughts

This whole thing about underage teen sex has got me thinking about whether I should do it or not. I am writing a essay for school and my topic is Teen Pregnancy and I believe some people like Bristol Palin influence us teens to go out and have sex because she is a role model and not for the good reasons.

Im sorry to say that but I feel it is true, I dont think teens should have sex whether or not its safe, thats why I wish these so called 'role models' should stop doing it and especcialy getting pregnant.

Girls

Bristol Palin is a strong young woman with a strong mother. Many young men try to compromise a young girl, get her pregnant, and then make sure she never gets an education. This is about more than early pregnancy and childbirth. This young man was probably frustrated that he could not control Bristol and stop her from becoming educated, sure of herself, and therefore out of his control. Bristol and her parents will never let this happen.

I come from an ethnic background and we were taught that your sexuality is gold. You do not give gold to swine. This is what my father taught his daughters. It is not just pregnancy that is the problem. Once a girl is with a lesser man, other men will not approach her. She may miss out on the love of her life. This is another good reason to abstain from premarital intercourse.

Another good reason is that a sexually transmitted disease can compromise a woman's ability to safely carry children. It is not just conservative, hyperreligious people who feel that the only way for a young person to have a good life is to abstain from sexual intercourse until adulthood and preferable until marriage.

Fear of HIV is not the way to prevent teen pregnancy, and kids are not getting pregnant because they don't know where babies come from...

The problem remains that there is a massive cultural disconnect between parents, teachers and corporations, and the teenagers they hope to influence and educate.

Enter Bravo Condoms, an action sports based condom company based out of Santa Barbara, CA. Bravo is a youth driven initiative that sponsors athletes, artists, and musicians to represent their innovative products around the country and the globe. Their mission is to make condoms cooler because ultimately these are decisions that teens make for themselves. By empowering young people to view safe sex as a fun and exciting option, you can do away with the fog of political jargon and antiquated orthodoxies that continue to miss the point and exacerbate the problem by accomplishing nothing.
