[QUOTE="Paulos23, post: 65305891, member: 105225"] Because it will not work. In many places it is 18 and teenagers still have sex at 16 or 17, some as young as 14 (or younger). Making the age of consent 21 will not stop it, nor will it slow the birth rate in most developed countries since the average age of giving birth is higher then 21 ([URL="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/mother-tongue/10380260/Average-age-of-women-giving-birth-now-nearly-30.html"]in UK it is 30[/URL]). Plus, you would have to get so many third world countries to pass and enforce that law to see if it will make a dent in population growth that it is near imposible to do. It would be easier to bring up the industral levels of those countries since that has a more profound effect on birth rate. [/QUOTE]
