I am? I'd put my money where my mouth is. I bet your daughter would get preggy before mine did. I bet mine has a good chance of loosing her virginity on her honeymoon.

We give our young adults tooooo much freedom. In most urban areas, it's easy to get to a college or university on public transportation.

Wake up and smell the coffee.

I'd dispute that. When my mother was in high school, students were allowed to leave the premises during lunch hour if they chose, and many did and went to the local burger joint instead of the cafeteria. Nowadays, even when students have nothing but study hall for the last period of the day, they're not allowed to leave before the closing bell.

What does any of that have to do with sex? Not much directly. But it does speak volumes about society's attitudes toward absolute control of the "helpless" youth. It's a small wonder then, that personal responsibility doesn't exactly thrive in such an environment.
