I feel there are many reasons why people should use birth control. The first and most important is that most of the people partaking in pre-marital sex are not financially, emotionally, or even physically ready to have a child. If a child is conceived, chances are the parents will handle the situation three different ways. They opt for an abortion, they give the child up for adoption, or they have the child and struggle. Using birth control will allow people to avoid risking pregnancy and having to deal with the stressful affects of a possible child.
