I too would prefer prevention. Unfortunately, we're not there yet.
And purplelirpa, casual sex is not on the rise. Casual sex has always existed in society to some degree; we're just more comfortable talking about it now than we were, say, 80 years ago. I would say we're actually having less casual sex as a society now than in previous eras/generations. People really went crazy after the birth control pill became widely available, but that wasn't even the first Sexual Revolution--the introduction of the diaphragm led to a lot of casual sex in the 1920s. Ask your grandparents; I bet they have stories to share.
And the number of teen mothers has actually decreased in recent years.
