There are so many news about American teenagers losing their virginity at the of 15. Now, there are teenagers losing their virginity at the age of 12. In other countries, most teenagers get boyfriends or girlfriends when they are in college. What is happening?
Let's face it, this is not a good thing especially when you're Catholic. If this continues there will be more teenage pregnancies and if this is so, only a few may finish their studies and get into a good job. If this happens, they might not instill in their kids the value of good education which will result to their children cutting classes, not studying very well or do as they did. If so, they will be like their parents and this cycle may be hard to break.
Let's face it, this has been happening since the beginning of time. When historians looked back at birth and marriage records of Puritan Massachusettes, over 1/3 of couples got pregnant before marriage. Many girls were having babies at 10 or 11.
Teens, and even pre-teens are going to have sex. It's our duty to make sure they understand what they are getting into and how they can protect themselves. This is not a new crisis, it's been going on since humans existed. Don't believe the media hype about how much of a problem it is.
It is a problem and it needs to be dealt with. And the main reason its a big problem for Catholics as you said is because every sperm is sacred and you can't use birth control. Unless you want to violate 2 sins instead of just the fornication.

But during those times, they thought that that was just okay. They didn't have a deep understanding of how human bodies especially female bodies function. Now that science has done great inventions and discoveries, we know that is is not good to get pregnant at a very young age. It is a fact that females who get pregnant before the age of 20 give birth to malnourished and weak babies. Besides, women in the past didn't go to school and only stayed at home, Now that women almost share the same privileges men have, females can now go to school and how will they do that when they're pregnant?

A see the Church a bit hypocritical. They are against a lot of effective family planning methods but when the a family gets poor because they cannot support anymore their very large family, they don't do anything. Well, maybe they do but what ever they are doing, it is definitely not enough. If they are against contraceptives, they should shoulder people suffering from lack of family planning methods. It hard to explain but i hope you guys get me.

Teenage sex would not be the only thing changing in teens. Where getting more obese (obvious, I know). My generation is actually the first one with a lower life expectancy than the previous generation. Just goes to show that teens right now are less active than previous ones.
