Abstinence Spokeswoman
In 2009, due to having the highest profile teen pregnancy of the year[8] Palin began speaking publicly as the Teen Abstinence Ambassador for the Candie's Foundation,[9][10] a teen pregnancy prevention organization pro-abstinence organization[11] She gave presenations on abstinence at town hall meetings and morning talk shows. According to Palin, "Regardless of what I did personally, abstinence is the only ... 100% foolproof way you can prevent pregnancy."[12] According to The Telegraph, in early 2009, before becoming an abstinence spokeswoman, 'Bristol said she believed that expecting teens to avoid sex was "not realistic at all".'[7]
