    Some stores won’t sell to people under 18, even when there’s no law requiring them to (I don’t k.ow of a place that does) and that requires money, something in short supply if you’re a teen

      Funny story. I remember years ago having a girlfriend when I was 25, and we are staying with my parents, who live in a small town for a few days. We went to buy some condoms one day, and we found that none of the mini marts nearby carried any sort of contraceptives at all.

      I remember asking the clerk, who was younger than me, and he acted incredulous that anybody would need a condom. In a city of 25,000 people.

      Luckily, Safeway came to the rescue. Lol
