Answer: pregnancy, childbirth, and abortion rates are much lower

Explanation: In Canada and Western Europe, where community- and school-based clinics offer adolescents contraceptives and where universal health insurance helps pay for them, pregnancy, childbirth, and abortion rates are much lower than in the United States.
