Birth control pills and c.c. vaccinations in middle school.
I keep hearing a lot about schools wanting to prescribe middle school girls birth control pills. Then before that was the cervical cancer vaccination. I don't have preteens yet but I keep going back and forth with this issue. My kids are home schooled so this isn't something I will directly have to deal with, but I still worry about it and the way society is going. Part of me says this is ridiculous, kids shouldn't be having sex this early and how can a young girl remember to take a pill when half the time they can't remember to bring home their homework. Another part of me says well if they are going to have sex anyways they need to be protected. Then I think about the long term affects of birth control pills and I wonder how this will affect a whole generation of kids by the time they are adults and what sort of problems i.e. cancer, infertility, etc. they will have to deal with. It's so hard to know what to do.
What are your thoughts?
