There is something incredibly wrong with the way we are raising our girls. How can so many girls be getting these diseases? I know that they’ve been educated about the risks and they know that they should be using condemn, so why aren’t they? The risk of cervical cancer alone should scare both the parents and their daughters into at least getting the immunity shot for the virus that causes the cancer.

At least one in four teenage girls nationwide has a sexually transmitted disease, or more than 3 million teens, according to the first study of its kind in this age group.
A virus that causes cervical cancer is by far the most common sexually transmitted infection in teen girls aged 14 to 19, while the highest overall prevalence is among black girls—nearly half the blacks studied had at least one STD. That rate compared with 20 percent among both whites and Mexican-American teens, the study from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found.
For many, the numbers likely seem “overwhelming because you’re talking about nearly half of the sexually experienced teens at any one time having evidence of an STD,” said Dr. Margaret Blythe, an adolescent medicine specialist at Indiana University School of Medicine and head of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ committee on adolescence.

These girls don’t realize what a wreck they are making of the life. They run a greater risk of being infertile and it will be expense and difficult for them to conceive. Not to mention the lifetime of pain that some of the diseases will leave them with and that they will die if they get cervical cancer. But they’ve probably been told that and aren’t listening because they think it won’t happen to them or they don’t care if it does.
