http://www.boston.com/news/local/breaking_news/2010/06/provincetown_to.html "Students in Provincetown – from elementary to high school – will be able to get free condoms at school, under a policy passed earlier this month, even though their parents might object" We would have better educated kids in this country if the school committees and politicians put as much energy into teaching our kids, as they do pushing their own political/social agenda. As a nurse and a mandated reporter of abuse, I would have lots of questions and issues if a 1st grader came into my office asking for condoms. Let's be honest here, a condom isn't going to fit a child of that age so what would the purpose in obtaining them be ? To make water balloons ? I can seriously see a child predator telling a kid to go get condoms from the nurse, after all she has to keep mum to the parents, advancing the predators agenda. Doesn't it make the nurse and school co conspirators for statuatory rape ? From my own moral standpoint, if I was giving little suzy Q condoms and later it was found out that Uncle Henry was abusing little suzy Q, I would feel I played a part in that crime. In my other thread we have the nanny nazi's trying to dictate what we can feed our kids and now the condom nazi's handing out condoms to any child that asks. I have an idea: why don't we get the schools to make up some " Safety Meals ". You know: a nice free range chicken salad sandwich, with organic lettuce and tomatoes, a piece of locally grown fruit and a Barney condon in each box. I really have no problem with this program for high school aged kids, but applying it to 6 year olds is absurd. mbmbn
