Sounds like it's too successful.

Teen pregnancy has actually dropped a lot surprisingly. At least in countries with robust sex ed BEFORE people start getting sexually active. Don't worry, I had to sit in parenting class between my brother's pregnant GF and another pregnant girl, so it could be worse.

when I was in Jr high a few girls were pregnant already. I knew 2 more that gave birth beginning freshman year

Sex ed should happen long before high school. And I don't mean sex ed saying abstinence is the only form of birth control.

That does sound really broken, yeah. I remember we had our first sex talk in school when we were 7, covered all the basic basics (penis, ******, sperm and eggs) which then went into more detail once we were around 10-11 or so, with condom use, pregnancy and all that, and then repeated and gone into even more depth (pills, where to get free condoms, how to use them and so on) around 13 or so. Worked fairly well, tbh.
