So, it does fail. You just prefer not to confront that directly because you prefer to make the girl look bad.

No, I assume the obvious. No form of birth control was used. If it turns out that they were taking precautions and she got pregnant anyway then I will most certainly admit my error.

You don't know what Mom taught this daughter. Sometimes, even kids who have been taught to use birth control don't do it. Kids are kids and sometimes they do dumb, risky and impulsive things even if their parents have cautioned them against dumb things.

We know what Palin advocated in schools - abstinence only, no sex education. Obviously there was a disconnect somewhere.

Although that is a possibility, it isn't obvious.

No, that isn't quite clear. Do you know what this girl was taught at school? Do you know what she may have been taught at home? Do you know all the components of the various Abstinence programs? Did you know that any program that mentions abstinence at all, is lumped together with Abstinence Only?

You are clearly only interested in jumping to whichever conclusions make Bristol and her mother look the worst.
