This really irritates me. Someone needs to tell these experts that 0% of teens who don't have sex become teen moms.

Wow, this is insane. So irresponsible. I had numerous clients working as a nurse at a crisis pregnancy center who suffered blood clots (one in her lungs) related to the pill. Particularly dangerous that they sell plan B over the counter and it's just a dose of about 5x the hormones in the pill, which, for women with these side effects is extremely dangerous.

Simply from a medical perspective, this is a serious medication that needs to quit being taken so lightly. Not to mention the babies it prevents and kills. Grrrr....
