Just Say No


You aren't ready. I know you aren't. You feel as if you have to say yes or you'll be the laughing stock of the school. They'll call you a prude. They'll say you aren't "down". Does it really matter? I Mean it's just high school, right? Think about it. It's only 4 years of your life. Would you rather risk getting pregnant or be what they call cool? No. You're smarter than that. You were raised better then that. Think about the hassles of being a teenage parent. Either a dollar for a condom or hundreds for diapers. It would be tough to follow your dreams when you have to take care of a baby all day. All because you couldn't control your hormones. Just say no.
