Maybe they should take one of the vacant businesses on the street and open a Planned Parenthood. Obviously, the women on the street have no clue about birth control and the writers think it's OK to portray them as too stupid to manage it. In this day and age, to have unending unplanned pregnancies on this show is disgusting. It is lazy writing.
