Also, sex education in that area is probably non-existent.
I was raised catholic also. Here in the late 20th century USA, sex education consisted of a video about periods for the girls and locker room talk for the boys. The first time I saw a man's privates was when I was raped as a teen. I had no idea what was going on. Fortunately, I didn't get pregnant, but I did miss a few periods. Many pregnancies don't "catch right" and are expelled within the first month or so. Yeah, God is the biggest abortionist of all.
Children having children is a preventable tragedy with proper sex education and access to birth control. This has been proven repeatedly all over the world. But try convincing the catholics that. They're evil.
