Cheap Pregnancy Tests Encourage Teen Sex???
The British equivalent of a dollar store, Fabulous 99s, has begun selling pregnancy testing kits for 99p ($1.61), about a tenth of the price of similar products in main street drugs stores. You might be thinking, so what?
Well, according to the Daily Mail this might encourage girls to have sex. The paper dug up mother-of-three Michelle Mitchell, 42, who said: ‘I do not appreciate it at all that pregnancy kits can be bought for pocket-money prices. I would not appreciate my daughter going in the pound shop without me knowing to find out if she is pregnant.’
Store manager Sajjad Hosen said the kits were "very popular" and that most of the girls buying them were between 16 and 21 (the age of consent in the UK is 16).
Hosen added 'I don’t think selling these encourages young girls to have sex. Young people will have sex anyway. You can’t stop them doing it. If the kits are cheaper and they work, then it’s better.’
Teen pregnancy is is a political hot potato in Britain which has the highest teen pregnancy rate in Western Europe with 21 girls under 16 becoming pregnant every day. Free pregnancy testing is available in the UK from clinics, family doctors and some National Health walk in centers.
If only I'd known as a teenager that a cheap pregnancy test was the key to getting girls to have sex.

They also have them here at some dollar stores.
They're also available in the states at some dollar stores (Dollar Tree is the store I saw them in.) So they're even cheaper here. ;-)
What we ARE.
The Hormones arrive on Time. Our children's ''education'' is willfully retarded so that they can be trained to be SLAVE LABOR for a flag and a stone god.
Human reproduction was such an awkward, messy, Life altering, and Life threatening, critical biological function that God had to create EXTRA hormones to encourage Creation to participate in creating the future of Life.
For millions of years, the life expectancy of a Human was under 35 years.
So if Humans did not have children by age 17 then their children would not have parents when they turned 17.
17 + 17 + 9 months = 35~.
God was NOT STUPID. Turning on hormones at age 13 was and is WISE.
Keeping children STUPID with STORKS and TRUTH FORBIDDEN is OUR mistake, Not God's.
The hormones arrive on time. Our children MUST learn Truth the HARD WAY, behind the barn.
It is not the children's fault. WE LIED TO THEM.
We said, reproduction is ''sex''. it is dirty, nasty, filthy, disgusting, pornography...so save it for your HOLY spouse.
Perents have no one to blame but themselves for REPEATING the LIES they were TOLD to BELIEVE bythe PEDDLERS of religious , slave owning CULTS.
Ok.. next topic.
