Bristol Palin speaks out about Teen Pregnancy!

Bristol Palin, who is the the daughter of the once VP hopeful Sarah Palin speaks out about teen pregnancy! I found this article from People magazine's online web site.

I found this article to be really great.

There is also a 30 second commercial the Bristol Palin does. The message is to think about what your doing before you have sex. To consider the consiquences. I have a daughter who will one day not far from now will be a teenager. The thought of her having sex scares the crap out of me. I try to talk to her about it but she always gets so embarrassed about the whole thing. I can't say having the "birds and bees" talk is great for me either but I know it's important to do. When I was 15 years old, my mom gave me a book and walked out of the room. Of course, at 15 yrs old, all you want to do is look at this pictures. But teen pregnancy is on an all time rise. I feel like awareness and communication plays a big factor in prevention. I know that I could handle her getting pregnate better than her being on drugs but I also want her to have every opportunity to make the most of herself.

As I'm sure any parent is, I am petrified about the future decisions my children make. I just pray that I did a good job about educating them with the facts and love that they will make the right choices.

I hope you take the time to read the article. It really was impressive!
