Paragraph one: "I'm definitely happy my parents went through with having me." If your parents hadn't had you, you wouldn't have known - you wouldn't have existed. You cannot state the corollary that you are sad your parent's didn't have you, because you would not know!

Paragraph 2: People are trying to find solutions. Unfortunately, this government frowns on anything but abstinence only sex ed. Look where that got us: Pregnant children.
You are taking an entirely different approach. I was commenting on the fact that because a child is unwanted, does not mean that it will suffer from that. Many children are unwante-but that doesn't make them unhappy in life.

Abstinence only sex ed...? I remember as far back as fifth grade talking about sex ed and condoms and stds/pregnancy. Then again in middleschool and highschool. There is always going to be teenage pregnancy. Nothing is 100% effective, but stopping the problem is much preferable to the quick fix.
