In a pro-abstinence PSA for Candie’s Bristol Palin wonders what teen pregnancy would be like if she didn’t come from a famous family, have all their support or have a lot of opportunities, In the end, she say, “It wouldn’t be pretty.” Which is a bit of a mixed message.

It’s as if she’s saying teen pregnancy is OK if you are famous, have support and opportunity. But if your an average person with limited resources and not much of a future, it would be very wise to “pause before you play.”

Which is it, Bristol?
