Premarital Sex- Not the Way to Go

“Contraceptive sex and sex outside of marriage not only leads to unwanted pregnancies; it also leads to bad marriages and divorce,” writes Janet Smith from Catholic Education Resource Center. I completely agree. Typically, when teens have “safe sex” outside of marriage, they are not mentally, emotionally, or even financially stable to deal with the consequences that sometimes sexual intercourse results in. Teens ignore the fact that all contraceptives such as condoms and birth control pills are not always 100% effective. When teens are alone with their significant other and they are kissing, one thing can lead up to another and then some people might not want to have sex but it just happens. How can this situation be prevented? Just don't have the opportunity to be in that situation where you can be totally alone.
