True, abstinence works. WHEN PEOPLE DO IT (or don’t do it ;) ).

Unfortunately, as I said above, people are flawed and screw up and often don’t do what they should.

That includes those who SHOULD use birth control, but just can't seem to bother, because they
1. Are teenagers, and think they're 10' tall and bulletproof
2. Know they have a backup (abortion), or
3. Don't care because if they have another baby, they'll get more money from the govt.

So this means we should give up, roll over, and play dead. Parental / family abstinance education costs virtually nothing. Informing children/students over and over will have an effect. it will take time, but it is the only proven birth control.
