Bristol Palin made 250,000 plus last year telling teens not to have a baby.  To a poor uneducated teen that and that reality show sound like good reasons to have a baby to me.  How about

Obscene.

But Cole* defended the foundation's 2009 practice of spending only $35,000 on direct health and assistance services, versus the money paid to Bristol Palin.

"The foundation's purpose is not to make grants to direct providers; it is to raise awareness," he said. "We're very proud of our work."

*Neil Cole, founder of Candie's Foundation

Raising awareness about a silly broad with a sprig of celebrity who gets paid more than your congressman to do some BS publicity work.

I agree with Bristol on one thing - that teenagers should not be having children. However, the methods through which we advocate for teens to postpone having children are different. She advocates abstinence (which clearly worked so well for her  ::)) whereas I advocate comprehensive sex education. I personally see the abstinence only approach as overly idealistic and irresponsible.

What really irks me about the whole thing is that, even with birth control being widely available in our society, teenage pregnancy remains a problem. These people should take into consideration the fact that, less than fifty years ago, birth control was widely illegal.

kids should wait till they're older to learn about parenthood.
