What's one problem we deal with today? I'm not talking about drugs and alcohol. Not suicide but it can lead to suicide. Teen pregnancy.

Do you know how many teens get pregnant each year? Approximately one million. From that one million only 520,000 are born. 405,000 have abortions and 80,000 miscarriages. Near 10% of those births are here in California. And most of those women aren't married. Now that's a shock! Yeah right.

Well at least they are legal to keep the baby and not get arrested. That's interesting. By now they should know the first time you could get pregnant.
Most of the women that are having say but he loves me. We love each other. But most of the time it's either a...
