this may relate to the problem with abstinence in that thiers no perceived room for a grey area. Either you do or don't. When the subject abstinence causing increased rate of teen pregnancy it gets shot down since sex is required for a pregnancy. By that thinking no one will ever entertain the thought that teens might fall off the wagon due to pent up emotions due to abstinence

Abstinence is not a plan for most teenagers today.
It was a poor plan when I was a teenager.
Still, it has been dropping significantly since 1991.\



"In 2014, there were 24.2 births for every 1,000 adolescent females ages 15-19, or 249,078 babies born to females in this age group.[1] Nearly eighty-nine percent of these births occurred outside of marriage.[1] The 2014 teen birth rate indicates a  decline of nine percent from 2013 when the birth rate was 26.5 per 1,000.[1] The teen birth rate has declined almost continuously over the past 20 years. In 1991, the U.S. teen birth rate was 61.8 births for every 1,000 adolescent females, compared with 24.2 births for every 1,000 adolescent females in 2014. Still, the U.S. teen birth rate is higher than that of many other developed countries, including Canada and the United Kingdom.[2]"

One of the cause in drop of teen birth rates is those reality teen moms shows. Seeing actual accounts of teens pregnancy and the fun of raising a child with all the advantages that comes with it.

I agree with you on this.  Once a woman has a child to care for, it changes her social life entirely, and not in a way most teens see as positive.
