My opinion is that they should, if they need it.
If they need it? Why would they need it?
They would need it because they are having sex and don't want to get pregnant.
They could be afraid to talk to their parents, they could be poor. There could be a lot a of reasons they need birth control.
Teenagers aren't the best decision makers, and if you think you can just make them wait until they are responsible enough to have sex you must have forgotten what it's like to be a teenager. They are going to do it. Why not at least accommodate the ones that will be responsible enough to ask for birth control.
Let's hear your non-religious explanation.
One more time: kids aren't teenagers. Kids are baby goats, or in pinch, children. Jersey is talking children. Teenagers are an entirely different animal. Clarify your posts! If you mean teenagers, don't say "kids". Using "kids" when you mean "teenagers" only shows your immaturity.
Again: grow up! Hell's bells! You use words like one my daughter's middle-schoolers. Age your vocabulary, because it's pathetic for someone as supposedly mature as you try to portray yourself.
And again: in my community, in my county, in my state, contraceptives and condoms are available to anyone who is mature enough to ask for them. Don't spread the unenlightened aspects of your own community with such a broad brush. Some of us are actually ahead of you.
