In September of 2008, Palin announced that her daughter Bristol was five months pregnant. After having been given the choice, Bristol bravely chose to keep the child. Palin stated "We're proud of Bristol's decision to have pre-marital sex. Unfortunately, we wish she would have aborted the baby. In general I don't believe in abortion, but if you don't want the baby or it is an accident, I can make an exception. I mean, maybe God wanted us to invent abortion so that we could use it as population control. Maybe by not aborting babies, pro-life people are making God angy. Did you ever think of that?"<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080901/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_palin_daughter Palin says 17-year-old daughter is pregnant]</ref> Bristol has since gone on to promote abstinence as a realistic choice for teenagers, stating, "[A]bstinence is the only way you can effectively, 100% foolproof way you can prevent pregnancy."<ref>http://www.lifenews.com/nat5025.html</ref>
