Justi,
Do you really feel that me spreading TRUTH, FACTS and LOGIC is wrong.
Because that is what I do.

One thing is right. There is not enough space to right what you do wrong in this writing community. Count yourself blessed that I do not begin.

You missed a whole lot of facts on this one, no surprise there
Go
here to read about what is going on.
To start with, it is not nine year olds. It is middle school students. That area where they do start to become sexual curious
Second, they don't just hand them out at request. The girls do have to get a real prescription for the pills.
Now such things DO NOT promote sexual activity and never have. It is part of education and protecting the kids. But I guess you would rather them be stupid and have unprotected sex at such an early age and get pregnant instead. I personally would rather see them more sexual activity and having less kids of their own above less of them having sex but more of them having kids.
I think I have asked this before of you and I will ask this yet again. please give links to where you are getting your information from. it is very annoying to see such statements made without anything to back them up. I really have no clue where you ever would get eh idea that some school is going to let 7 year olds 'declare their sexual identity' and 'explore each other's bodies'. Sorry, but there is not a school system out there that would make such things part of any curriculum, especially at the grade school level.

You are so right. It is legal. I have the wrong state in this piece. It is Portland but in Main. They have made it a law! Where are these parents? I would be marching on somebody's chest if they did this and I had a child there. This is too crazy. The schools have entirely too much control over the child and then yell it is the parent if anything goes wrong. Thanks for this excellent comment. When do we see this little beauty of yours?

Justi,
How can any doctor give any kind of medication to a minor (or at least someone under the age of 16 or so) without a parents permission. They need medical history and everything. What if a child is allergic or has a serious reaction? What if the child becomes ill and the parents take her to the hospital and they don't even KNOW she's on the pill and give her meds that make her sicker or even kill her? I can't believe this is legal. Besides all that, I can't imagine even thinking about getting on the pill when I was 9. I wouldn't have even known what it was or what it was for. THAT'S how it still should be. This world sure is changing.

At 9 (or at 7) how can a child possibly have the intellectual or emotional capacity to make such decisions????
