You've probably seen or read about the Maine school where 11 year-olds are receiving birth control pills. It's been all over the news. So have stories about teenagers serving jail time for having consenual sex with another teen. Anyone else confused? It's their argument (not mine)....If we give them birth control they'll use it! Ok, but why are we sending them to jail for using it? Sounds like blackmail to me. Sometimes I wish I'd finished law school.
Thanks to my friend, Jessie, for bringing this to my attention.
UPDATE: School refuses to reconsider even after threat of lawsuit. Read here.
UPDATE AGAIN: Here's an article that clearly makes my point.
