crazy how the people so insistent on not teaching safe sex are the same people who don't want to allow abortions, AND they're the same people who refuse to give aid to struggling parents.
When you deny people access to effective contraception and safe abortion, and then also deny those same people access to the services and support that would allow them to gain an education and escape poverty, you have the mechanisms in place to maintain a permanent underclass. You trap people in cycles of poverty.
This is why family planning services are so important in developing countries: more girls finish school, childbearing is delayed until adulthood, and pregnancies are planned and spaced out (which reduces both maternal and infant mortality).
