Texas is #5...

... in teen pregnancy rates. Guess that abstinance only education is really paying off. Obviously telling teenagers not to have sex is stopping them right in their tracks. Whatever. That is the most ridulous thing I have ever heard. Since the beginning of time teenagers have been actively not listening to authority figures. For some reason there are people that think that teaching teenagers about birth control will encourage them to have sex. Well, telling them not to certainly isn't stopping them.

For some reason based on absolutely nothing, I would've thought Texas would rank a little higher. Maybe because of who used to be the guv there and who is the guv there now.

I guess there are a few wayward parents telling their kids about birth control. If it weren't for them, we would be number 1!
