Check these out, too...
The policy makers are defending it by insisting that this is a preventative measure against sexually transmitted diseases and teen pregnancy for students who are interested in becoming (or already are) sexually active. The policy also makes abstinence counseling available to the tweens and teens, as well as an opt-out option that parents can choose if they do not want their child to have access to the contraceptives. Opponents of the plan claim children as young as 12 should not be sexually active and that giving them a means of birth control encourages them to experiment sexually at far too young an age.
Here at GL, we believe that making contraceptives available to those who want them isn’t encouraging kids to have sex, it’s helping those already interested to do so safely. Research has proven that kids are having sex whether their parents like it or not. Shouldn’t they at least do so safely?

POSTED IN sex ed, In the News
i think its a good idea, and its not going to encourage us to have sex. most kids know what it is before taking sex ed anyway! if they give them contraceptives and they decide to be dumb and have sex, at least they wont get pregnant, have to drop out of school, & not be able to get a good job.

Condoms @ Prom, Did anyone hear in the news about the school in New York that is giving away free condoms at the end of their school prom? Some people dont think it is a good idea but in reality it probably is a good idea. Then the news said New York city schools gave out almost One-Million Condoms this year to kids and the prom thing didnt sound like that big of a deal. Wow, a million condoms is a lot!

I think that giving middle schoolers condoms or birth control is ridiculos I'm in 7th grade and never kissed or dated anybody. Although if 6th graders and older do have sex it's better safe then sorry I mean it is horrible if they are sexually active but it would be even worse if they were pregnant at 12 and teenagers definitely would not listen to there parents we are stubborn and foolish and think they are in love!
