first I will say that I believe that there should be free condoms or birth control available to those only 16 and older in high school without parental consent. the reason being is simply that in our U.S. society today 33% of the kids in schools ages 15 to 18 are having sex. with that said I will also point out that is a regional study from many schools across the U.S.. we cannot stop it so why not ensure the kids are having safe sex rather than unprotected sex. this debate is not for or against...

Wallstreetatheist

In this debate, Round 1 is acceptance. Round 2 is arguments. Round 3 is arguments and rebuttal. Round 4 is rebuttal and conclusion.
