Abortion wasteland helps keep down teenage mother statistics

The willingness of the progressives to accept a rise in abortion statistics among teenagers as a positive measure against under-age pregnancy shows how warped their morality is. See Madeleine Bunting's defence of current sex education policy as a way of stopping teenage pregnancy. Bunting says "the proportion of teenage girls choosing to abort rather than take the pregnancy to term has risen significantly. The fall of just over 24% in teen mothers is dramatic. In other words, teenage girls increasingly understand the enormous responsibility of motherhood and know they are not ready. "

References to such teenagers taking "responsibility" seems to have replaced "autonomy" in the feminist schoolbook; the right to abortion becomes a duty to abortion for those teenagers who have been "educated" to have safe sex at a young age, but then fail the condom exam in the heat of the moment.
