So, the UK Government is planning to advertise condoms and abortion clinics before 9PM in the near future. Why? It's outrageous. It won't help anyone - if anything it will make the whole "pregnancy rates have gone up" thing that little bit worse.

Think about it, advertise abortion clinics and condoms on the telly and you'll suddenly get this hype where teenagers suddenly think "Hey, I can have sex and then my girl can get an abortion. I can wear a condom. Sorted." No. Just because a girl can get an abortion doesn't mean the pregnancy doesn't happen. I can't help but feel these adverts will just encourage careless kids to go out and have sexy time with a lady friend.

It also contributes to kids asking the dreaded question before they should even think about it - "Mummy/Daddy, where do babies come from?" There'll be 2 added questions after that one, too: "Okay... so what are condoms?" and "So if a girl gets pregnant, they can stop the baby coming?" Imagine. What a world.

I'd like your comments and opinions. Do you share my view?
