I agree that it is amazingly shocking that girls as young as 11 are thinking about sex, let alone having sex, but I think it’s a good idea for them to be able to text for the morning after pill.
In a perfect world people this young wouldn’t be thinking about sex, but clearly some of them are. So, introducing an easier way for girls to get the morning after pill might reduce the amount of teen pregnancies.
Obviously condoms would be far more effective, but if it’s too late for that then I’m sure the girl would feel bad enough as it is without the shame and aggravation of getting the morning after pill. With them being able to text to get it they have more chance of people actually using it, because girls at the age of 11 might simply not bother with the aggravation and hope and pray they don’t become pregnant.
Obviously, as long as there is still a network of safe sex advice offered I don’t see much of a problem.
