I really doubt the fact that teenage pregnancies occur at such as high rate has much to do with lack of sex ed. I mean: I never even took sex ed and know how you get pregnant and all that stuff.

Rather, I think teenage pregnancies have much to do with the fact that the partakers do not fully understand the consequences/do not worry about the consequences. When you're 16 and have 2 babies but get free education and other services, why worry about the consequences? You can live a life of risks without having to feel the full results of your consequences.
