In fact the dropping teen pregnancy rate is due to kids having less sex. This isn't due to sex ed, or any government program.
It's caused by smartphones. Kids are having less sex, going out less, engaging in actual interpersonal interactions less, at every level, because they're on their phones.
Regarding broken families, you fail to acknowledge the reason for this: the welfare state. A poorly educated single mom in WV receives income and subsidies roughly equivalent to $50k/year today. Having spousal and child support from sacrificial sperm donors can significantly increase this.
The destruction of the family is the primary cause of child abuse, and it's being deliberately induced by the exact same forces that are promoting CPS as the solution.
End both.
Problem solved.
a planned parenthood in every ghetto in every major city giving government funded abortions might be helping to reduce the teen pregnancy rate also. The matriarch of democrats that was the driving force behind planned parenthood was one crazy bitch named Margaret Sanger. She was a racist, inspired by the Nazi eugenics program, and hated kids on top of it all. She tried to impose a sterilization program too. Her backwards ass ways are still held in high regards by the likes of Hillary and her libtard cronies. I will never understand how the black community cant see through the bullshit that the democrats throw at them just to get their vote. All they need to do is research racist quotes from LBJ to understand the founding principals of the democratic party

The teen pregnancy rate has been dropping for a long time, this has nothing to do with cellphones
While there has been a gradual decrease in every measure of gregariousness, not just teen pregnancy, since I was a kid myself, the marked impact of smartphones is astounding.
Have a read at this article. You'll be safe, it's from The Atlantic - no Breitbart quality shilling here!
Not sure what you mean by gregariousness. While I agree that smartphones are having serious impacts on our culture, I still dont think its safe to say that this is due to cellphone usage.
Interpersonal interaction, face time, people belly to belly. Gregarious people are those that interact socially more.
As TV rose, it very slowly degraded social intercourse. The rise of the internet made it worse.
Cell phones show it might be something that can just be prevented. AR is just coming on the scene, and VR is at it's heels.
It's difficult to even imagine people are going to interact more in person as our phones replace our friends and neighbors.
Have a look at the charts on the link I pasted. It's pretty obvious. If you read the article, it discusses how phones keep us apart, and how that impacts our kids.
It's not a positive influence.
