Last December, frustrated by a teen pregnancy rate that kept rising even as state and national levels were dropping, a group of Washington County officials decided to risk $5,000 in prize money on the idea that teens could persuade their peers to delay or abstain from sex.
On Thursday night, their bet paid off, as teens, parents and some elected officials gathered at the Maryland Theatre to view a short film, some 30-second spots and some print ads. Many different techniques were used, but the theme for all was the same - sex has consequences.

I think campaigns that include what a terrible life and struggle you have if you are a child and have to look after a child .You need to be in the right mind-set to have kids otherwise you produce emotionally immature and backwards kids that have a hard time in the society - its like you are abusing the child or giving it drugs - its not right.Think of it this way - you need to have a licence to have a gun or drive a car or practise law or be a doctor, but not one gives you a "how to" on parenting or a certificate saying you are worthy of being a parent in this society. If you screw up, YOU REALLY SCREW UP, and you can produce the next Hitler or Binlarden!So why screw around and mess your and a another little life up just because you get a little hot under the collar!?
this is one of the comment that my mom's friend left.
