Bristol Palin (born October 18, 1990) is the daughter of Alaska governor and vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and Sarah's husband Todd Palin. She lives with her parents in Wasilla, Alaska, and has a son, Tripp, with Levi Johnston. [2][3] [4][5][6] Bristol and fiance Levi Johnston ended their engagement about 2.5 months after the birth of their son.[7]
Abstinence Spokeswoman
In 2009, due to the high profile of her teen pregnancy in the wake of the 2008 Presidential Election, Palin began speaking publicly as the Teen Abstinence Ambassador for the Candie's Foundation,[8] [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".'[13]
