Middle School In Maine Offers Birth Control
Pupils at a city middle school will be able to get birth control pills and patches at their student health center after the local school board approved the proposal Wednesday evening.
The plan, offered by city health officials, makes King Middle School the first middle school in Maine to make a full range of contraception available to students in grades 6 through 8, according to the state Department of Health and Human Services. There are no national figures on how many middle schools, where most students range in age from 11 to 13, provide such services. I dont know that I agree with this. In a way I feel it is giving the child permission to have sex but my coworker points out that they are doing it anyways. |
