DENVER SCHOOLS MAY OFFER BIRTH CONTROL PILLS

The leaders in Denver want to issue birth control pills. This is supposed to prevent pregnacies and drop outs. Many students cannot afford health care, so when they are referred to clinics, they do not go.

Some groups are protesting the action. This makes the parents lose control of parenting and advising their children. In Texas, they want to pass a law to make it mandatory for girls over the age of 11 to get a vaccination to prevent venereal diseases.

And in Maryland parents were demanded that their children be vaccinated or do jail time. It seems that parents have no say-so on how to raise their kids.
