More Birth Control = Fewer Abortions

This is an informative article on what really happens when people try to legislate sexual morality and insist others live according to THEIR religious beliefs. Sadly, this is not going to have the effect the moral warriors are hoping for. Limiting birth control options by making them more costly or harder to access is going to lead to more abortions or more poor outcomes for both the mothers and children. Abstinence based initiatives have been studied and shown to have no measurable impact on abortion rates. Birth control use did. In a big way. Don't like abortion? Make birth control MORE available, not less.

So why is the current Administration trying to make birth control harder to come by?

Trump jeopardizes progress in reducing teen pregnancy and abortion rates


Teen birth rates have been cut in half over the last decade, which is beneficial not only to young women but to Americans as a whole. The decline is attributed to public health outreach and better use of contraception.

President Donald Trump has put that access to contraception in jeopardy with his rollback of a rule that required employers, with some narrow exceptions, to include contraception, at no cost, in their health insurance plans....

The Trump administration has already quietly cut more than $200 million for ongoing research into the most effective ways to prevent unwanted teen pregnancies, a decision most likely driven by ideology rather than science.

Three-quarters of U.S. teen pregnancies are unplanned and nearly a third end in abortion, which is much higher than the overall abortion rate of 14.6 percent. That’s the lowest rate since 1973, the year of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision.

Teen pregnancy has multi-generational consequences. Only half of teen mothers receive a high school diploma by age 22, compared with 90 percent of women who do not give birth as teens.

The children of teenage mothers also are more likely to drop out of high school. In addition, they are more likely to have more health problems, be incarcerated at some time during adolescence, give birth as teenagers, and face unemployment as young adults.



No government official is preventing anyone from getting birth control.
All that is happening is the removal of mandates forcing people to do things against their will.
I thought you were against rape.

You mean insurance companies and zealot employers.

Insurance companies and employers should be free to do as they like without interference from the government.
If you want to live in a country where business is run by the government, move to one.

No one is forcing ANYONE to use birth control. It seems to be doing this country a public service by requiring employers to offer free birth control services in their insurance plans. This is allowing covered teens to access effective birth control, thereby dramatically reducing abortions and the generational impact of unwanted teen pregnancies when brought to term.
Where is it forcing anyone to use birth control?

I didn't say anyone was being forced to use bc. I'm saying companies are being forced to provide it.

Please keep up.
 
Well they want to get rid of Medicaid and they really do not care about the poorer population in my opinion. No funding for Chip as of yet, and in my opinion they are only anti PP due to Title X.

They care more about the fetus before it leaves the womb than after.
I don't give a shit about the poor, as at one time I was as poor as they are. Instead of being a worthless liberal and feel pity party for myself, I got skills and knowledge and work for myself now. Stupid fucking liberals deserve to be poor because they vote for the people who keep them poor.. Dumbasses all of you.

 
Yep - i see those pointing out that ALL states have birth control available. Maybe - Maybe NOT. Problem: If you are not taught how which birth control methods are appropriate and how to use them, they are meaningless. Abstinence only education? It should be taught at home?? Lol - doesn't work. Want more abortions? Teach abstinence or rely on home schooling.

Abstinence education: There's almost no getting around it. States with abstinence-only education have the highest rates of teen pregnancies.

In 2008, the Washington Post reported on a University of Washington study which found that teenagers who received comprehensive sex education were 60% less likely to get pregnant than someone who received abstinence-only education. A 2007 federal report found that abstinence-only programs have had "no impacts on rates of sexual abstinence," reported ThinkProgress.

In a 2011 study published in the journal PLOS One, researchers found a similar correlation between a state's commitment to abstinence education and pregnancy rates.


The States With the Highest Teenage Birth Rates Have One Thing in Common

The Democratic Party is very busy replacing replacing middle class taxpaying Americans with third world welfare moochers.
The Racist Democrats even brag that these poor uneducated people will future majority of Americans.

Okay, you hold an extreme view that negates any discussion of our reality at this point. To you, mandated insurance is all wrong.
This thread is about the correlation between free contraceptive services accessible by all and the dropping teen pregnancy/abortion rate.

Fuck, if we sterilize every stupid liberal(redundant statement) then by God, there wont be stupid people anymore whining about how unfair life is, while stealing my money to give to a worthless fucking liberals who have Obamaphones and EBT Cards.


Typical liberal voter....

"Obamaphones" is a continuing program started by Ronald (Mt. Rushmore) Reagan. Who are you calling stupid Mr. home school?

Why is that particular mandate "slavery" and other foolishness, according to you, but covering pre-existing conditions is alright?
Not buying it.

Nonsense, birth control is readily available free or at a very reduced cost at any public health office, has been for years.

And teen pregnancy rate has and unwanted pregnancy rate has been lowered. But the Trump administration is looking to undo all that work for cutting public programs that offer birth control pills and not making insurance companies cover it.
Wow, at one time, to have a teen get pregnant in America, would mean some liberal got them drugged and then took advantage. Why after 40 years of Liberal propaganda is there more teen pregnancies? Could it be because of liberalism?
Could it be that you don`t have the slightest idea what you`re babbling about?
Teen birth rate drops to all-time low in US - CNN

Exactly! You're not for any of it. My point in the first place. Hence, you need an Obamacare thread.
 
Let Planned Parenthood start handing it out, make use of that taxpayer money they receive
That shit-brained little woman-hater pigpence took care of that already, 'cause he's so "holy" in his own eyes that he can't stand any woman whose life he cannot control.
