Hide the Birth Control (April 2015): Survey Says

Survey Says: Hide the Birth Control (April 2015)

Power to Decide has been commissioning public opinion surveys for two decades. One of the most consistent findings over the past 20 years has centered on the power of parents. In survey after survey, teens say parents most influence their decisions about sex. Not peer, not partners, not popular culture. The results presented here suggest that teens are a bit less sanguine when it comes to parents and birth control.
