Contraception for 11-Year-Olds?

From the Portland Press Herald in Maine:

Students who have parental permission to be treated at King Middle School's health center would be able to get birth control prescriptions under a proposal that the Portland School Committee will consider Wednesday.

The proposal would build on the King Student Health Center's practice of providing condoms as part of its reproductive health program since it opened in 2000, said Lisa Belanger, a nurse practitioner who oversees the city's student health centers.

If the committee approves the King proposal, it would be the first middle school in Maine to make a full range of contraception available to some students in grades 6 to 8, said Nancy Birkhimer, director of teen health programs for the Maine Department of Health and Human Services. Most middle schoolers are ages 11-13.

Who could possibly oppose this. Of course 11-year-olds desperately need contraception from their educational institutions. I don't know if 11-year-olds are biologically capable of reproduction, but adults should respect their sexual freedom. (SARCASM ALERT!)

Meanwhile, a guest speaker at some Minnesota schools got in hot water for mentioning abortion and homosexuality in a negative light.

Tina Marie, an actress who is associated with Premiere Speakers and spoke under the auspices of Youth for Christ, "crossed the line" according to Willmar High School Principal Rob Anderson.

From WorldNetDaily:
During her visit to Willmar, she asked students to listen to song lyrics, and consider their message. She also said actors and musicians often won't let their own children watch or listen to the things they are trying to sell to others' children, according to a report in the Morris, Minn., newspaper.

But the report in the Sun-Tribune said Tina Marie told the students one-third of their generation has been aborted, and she suggested boys who wear low-hanging pants may be seen as homosexuals.

How dare someone tell school children that killing unborn children, or engaging in immoral and risky sex, are things they shouldn't do. This egregious imposition of values on the students takes away from time schools might otherwise spend on important things like giving condoms to kids. (SARCASM ALERT!)

And some people wonder why I homeschool???
