A Jr. High School is making headlines about giving birth control to it's students (article is here)What is your stance on providing Jr. High students with condoms and birth control? Should it only be the parents responsibility?

I think handing out condoms is perfectly fine but birth control pills are different though. They are hormones and in junior high, some girls haven't went through puberty so the birth control pills might negatively effect them: prematurely making them developing or screwing up their periods when they haven't even have them. I think the school is taking a very progressive step by starting sexual education so early. Many people think parents are teaching their kids but most of the time, it's not something that's mentioned and thoroughly discussed in a parent-kid relationship. ^ Having pills does not encourage sex. Many girls use birth control to regulate their periods or help them with puberty. Just because they have something that can let women have sex without getting pregnant doesn't mean they'll actually use it like that. |
