Morning-After Pill

The maker of Plan B morning-after pill is asking the FDA for permission to sell the drug without any age limits.  Currently if you are 17 and older you can buy the pill OTC without a doctor's prescription.

Thoughts? 

Personally, I think younger girls should have access to it.  It would prevent a lot of abortions.  I don't think it would increase promiscuity because I think if you are a teenager and wanted to have sex, you'll do it regardless of having access to the morning-after pill.  I don't think every teenager is going to start whoring around just because the pill is available.
