Birth Control

Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, most forms of birth control are now covered by health insurance with no out-of-pocket costs, but there are limitations. Research the various methods/techniques of birth control and find statistical data on unplanned pregnancies across the United States and within your state.

In your post, address the following questions:

Are you surprised by the pregnancy rates within the United States and your state? Why or why not?

Should birth control products be free to anyone who wants to use it?

Should birth control products, such as condoms, birth control pills and patches, be readily available for teenagers without a parent's knowledge or consent? Why or why not? If so, at what age?
