You can look at the link above, or do some searching on the web.

Bottom line is that these countries have a far lower pregnancy rate among teenagers and a far lower abortion rate than we do in the US. It's just the truth.

It's shameful that we do so poorly in this regard.

What are the reasons? I don't know for sure, but I do know that the numbers are there.

Some here are making a joke of it, but I don't find it amusing at all. We Americans should be ashamed of our record in this regard.

Sorry.
