Bristol Palin: Teen Pregnancy Prevention Spokesperson

Posted by Josh loposer

Bristol Palin and baby Tripp

Who better to raise awareness for teenage pregnancy than the 18-year-old, unwed mother that injected some serious drama into last year's presidential campaign, Bristol Palin?

Heck, it's not like drama over 4-month-old Tripp has died out... but anyway, Levi's tell-all book about sex in the governor's mansion isn't what this post is about.

Bristol Palin is making her own headlines these days, serving as an example for young women of what not to do. No kidding, she's landed a job (I'm assuming it pays money) as a Youth Ambassador for the Candies Foundation. Says Bristol:

“I feel that I could be a living example of the consequences of teen pregnancy. If I can prevent even one girl from getting pregnant, I will feel a sense of accomplishment.”

Uh, Bristol, you are a living example of the consequences, and pretty much everyone has heard your story already. Still, for those who want to hear it first hand, Bristol will be speaking at the Candies Foundation's annual Event to Prevent in New York.
