NEW YORK — Bristol Palin, maybe the best-known unwed teen mother, embarked on a media tour Wednesday to argue that abstinence is a realistic way for teens to avoid unwanted pregnancy — a view not shared by the father of her infant son.
Palin, the 18-year-old daughter of Alaska’s Democratic Gov. Sarah Palin, appeared on ABC’s "Good Morning America” and NBC’s "Today”, where she said she wished she had waited to have sex.
The baby’s father, Levi Johnston, appeared on CBS’ "The Early Show” on Wednesday, saying abstinence was "not realistic” for many young people.
Palin’s promotion of abstinence was a turnaround from what she told Fox News in February. Then, she said abstinence is "not realistic at all.”
