Teenage contraceptive implants: the case against – Telegraph

Contraceptive clinics on school premises are giving under age girls the green light to engage in illegal sexual activity and denying them the protection that the law on the age of consent is intended to give.

They inevitably lead to boys putting pressure on girls to have sex.

Boys and young men can now tell their girlfriends: “There’s nothing to worry about. You can get the school clinic to give you an implant, so you don’t have to worry about getting pregnant.

“You don’t have to face the embarrassment of going to see your doctor, and it’s all confidential so your mum doesn’t need to know a thing.”

Many girls have later regretted their early sexual experiences, and testified that they would never have embarked on an illegal sexual relationship under the age of 16, had it not been for the confidential provision of contraception on school premises.
