Re: Maine Middle School to offer Birth Control
Wow Color_Me_Sulky that was the most dynamic post I have ever read.
The dynamic that troubles me is that this policy pits two or one parent(s) against a whole system of thought and belief. Kids are being placed in a middle of a battle that is so unfair. They say it takes a village to raise a child, so what is a parent to do if everyone continues to undermine their authority and values. Not every child is going to hear the abstinence speech, all they know is so and so got a condom and is going to do it. Oh the wonder and amazement of doing something your parents said not to. I think its completely absurd to think that parents are the only one who can influence a child. No matter how good a parent you are in trying to instill proper values, your relationship with your child is not always going to be 100% In the past our culture reinforced and supported parents, not is seems it is all about undermining them.
