What does you shall not commit adultery mean?

Having sex outside of marriage, either yours, or your partner's or that of you both. Felt I needed to correct this answer because it's not at all true how God sees adultery. The bible tells us that in God's eyes it is even wrong to lust within our hearts. You can commit adultery even if you don't commit a sexual act. It's sharing a sexual or intimate bond (something you wouldn't do with that person if your spouse was around) with someone other than your spouse. If you are taking away your gift of intimacy a married couple is supposed to have, whether it is sexual, physical, mental, or emotional, if you are taking that from your marriage and giving it to someone other than your spouse, you have committed adultery. Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery. - Hebrews 13:4

How does faith have an impact on young people regarding contraception?

The more general is that faith has little effect on the use of contraceptives by Christian people. For example, Catholics use contraceptives much as people of other denominations do, evidenced by the very low birth rates in strongly Catholic countries such as Spain and Italy. Indirectly, faith does have an impact on the use of contraceptives by young people in some countries, where adolescents are encouraged to pledge to remain virgins until marriage. Because the young people making those pledges believe, at the time, that they really will remain virgins, they make no effort to have contraceptives available at the time of their first intercourse. As a result, illegitimate births are somewhat higher for those young people who took a faith-based pledge of virginity.
