Does access to condoms prevent teen pregnancy?
Unprotected sex has a chance of causing pregnancy. And once a teenager experiences their first bout of sex, they are unlikely to stop. So it would only be a matter of time before the unprotected sex caused a pregnancy. The moral and religious things that used to be in place to guilt teens into not having sex are no longer as strong, and teens are going to have sex. It is just a matter of if they will be protected and safe, or unprotected and risking more than just an unwanted pregnancy.Although parents do not like to admit it, teens everywhere are having sexual relations. Parents try their best to raise children: to teach them right and wrong, and the difference between appropriate behavior and inappropriate behavior. However, teenage sexual relations have little to do with parents, and much more to do with teenage culture and pressures from peers. The world of teenagers is governed by different norms and 'rules' than that of parents or mixed groups. Within the teenage group, it is normal to be rebellious and to want to explore things that seem exciting, grown up, or 'cool'. Sex is, and will always be, one of these things. Since the desire to explore sex is a given, the best thing we can do is to provide teens with access to birth control, including condoms. With this, a considerable amount of teenage pregnancy can be prevented, although unfortunately not all. so yes acces to condoms dose prevent teen pregnancy.
