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?

Nurses not "knowing medicine" is not the issue. At the schools, they aren't going to have all the recourses than an OB/GYN does, and having such easy access to the pill would take away the necessity for girls to visit an OB/GYN, which is important for the sexually active. I'm not saying that schools have incompetent nurses, but taking care of that sort of thing isn't their job, and it doesn't really need to be, because it still isn't the same as actually going to a doctor that specializes in that area.
No one is denying that kids have sex at young ages. And yeah, education needs to be reinforced by actual preventive measures. I'm not even saying that it's that strange for young girls to be on it, but that I don't feel that is the best way to go about it. |
