TONIGHT AT 9 - Birth control for kids? on A CONVERSATION WITH ANDREA AND …

A Maine school board recently voted 7-2 to make birth control pills and patches available to 11-year old girls at their school’s student health center.

And the Portland, Maine bright bulbs decided to offer prescription birth control to middle-schoolers without informing their parents.

As Charles Sykes, father of three and author of 50 Rules Kids Won’t Learn in School writes, “We have schools banning dodge ball and tag because our children are fragile. And there are schools that suspend kids for bringing Motrin to school, in the name of Zero Tolerance. Then we turn around and give little girls birth control pils?”

“This is what passes for ‘realism’ these days. The ‘realists argue that because middle-school girls are having sex, we need to give them pills’.”

Hear what else Charles Sykes has to say about this and other alarming trends affecting the family unit and our values when he joins me tonight on my webcast radio program.
