Why do parents think that withholding birth control options will cause their child to refrain from sex?
For some reason, many parents believe that if they don’t put their child on birth control, their child will somehow exercise personal restraint and use logical reasoning when it comes to their sexual behavior due to a fear of pregnancy. How do parents actually come to this conclusion???

You make a good point.
There is a name for people like that – Grandparents.
Because a lot of times, it works. Many of my friends only started having sex once they were on the pill for "other reasons".
Probably they’re still in denial that their kid has sex. Also, the traditional Christian way of thinking is "abstinence is the best birth control". They might think that giving their child access to birth control is allowing them to grow up too fast. Every parent has their own reasons, though I’m sure when they were growing up abstinence was the most popular and accepted way of thinking.
Strange question….where are you from?..
I think parents should teach children to respect themselves enough to not have random sex at a young age.
