Wouldn't it be the class of 2031? I mean, the eggs don't just pop into babies in a month's time or something....

The only opposition to this seems to be some group of professional busybodies.

Teens fark. Let's admit and get over it and start thinking about realistic ways to deal with it.

/didn't need a condom on his prom night :(

More like 2035. If you are dumb enough to make a baby on prom night likely your kid will be dumb enough to need to repeat a grade or three. Or never gradumicate at all

Hey kids, take it from someone that listened to his parents and started late:
Fark your brains out as much as you want, or not, it's your choice. Do not let anyone pressure you into "do" or "do not".

Just if you do, take precautions so you don't tie down your life before you choose to, or get an infection you can't cure.

It would be interesting to come back in a year or two and compare birth rates to all those holier-than-though states that teach abstinence only.

If you think you're man enough to dip the wick, you should be man enough to buy your own condoms.

A kid should be proud to do so actually.

"Do you have any steel-belted, extra large with the lake mead resovoir tip? No? - I'll just try to make do then."

Pretty much this.

Oh well... I suppose the car washes of the future arent going to run themselves.

Conservatives by nature love to control other people's sex lives.

Just like they love WAR and GUNS
and CENSORSHIP
and KEEPING ALL THE MARBLES FOR THEMSELVES
and GAWD
and DESTROYING THE ENVIRONMENT

and they HATE
...science (unless it's to make them richer!)
...logic
...common sense
...women's rights

You're all missing the point. We should be looking for ways to stall puberty until the age of 25. That will eliminate prom night dumpster babies, a lot of abortions, drop outs and babies raising babies.

That Valerie lady from the abstinence crowd is more than welcome to go to that prom and meet all those teens who were sent to that school from others for discipline problems. Knowing people from Brooklyn, I'd say the ones with discipline problems are going to teach her a thing or two about human nature. "Ya know, thah Bable tells ya tah ABSTAIN for JEEEEZUZ." "Whatafahyewtawkinboutbich?"

No actually requireing girls 13 to 14 to work in a nursery/day care setting works

A small school district that had a high teen pregnancy rate tried this and they were able to drop the rate to zero

Something about crying babies, screaming young kids, puke, poop and diapers that make teen girls think more about abstinence and prevention

FTA: But handing out free condoms as part of the festivities is a wrong move, says Valerie Huber, executive director of the National Abstinence Education Association, an advocacy group that resists comprehensive sex education in schools. "We are concerned that the distribution of condoms on school campuses further normalizes teen sex," she told msnbc.com via email.

See, there's your problem right there.. some uptight biaoytch thinks teen sex is abnormal.

Meh, they'll have healthier kids with less chance of birth or mental defect, plus they'll be out of the house by the time you're 40.

Serious question here...

While I am totally against abstinence-only sex-education programs, I wonder, how many teenagers would actually take the condoms? Wouldn't they fear someone seeing them take them?

Came to say this. Any baby conceived on prom night ain't going to his/her own for 19 years, not 18.

Glad to see pedantry is alive and well on Fark.

Plenty of macho guys would take them. Probably none of the girls would take them for fear of social embarrassment.

Because abstinence worked so well for the Virgin Mary, right?

We didn't in the '90s. The teachers and administrators used to hand them out all the time. The guidance counselor had a cookie jar full of Trojans on her desk.
