Sarah,
Thank you for sharing in my same belief. I am a father to two daughters, one being of an age where I am a nervous wreck.
Too be blunt, I will voice it and say yes I have put my teenage daughter on birth control. While it is hard to do, the reality is I am not naive to the world.
With the opportunity of free birth control, I am completely for the possibility and reality. We live in a culture unlike what we as young adults experienced. While I am not promoting promiscuity,very much like you, I am saying that I know the consequence and I want my children to understand them and be prepared.
Reducing teenage pregnancy by offering free birth control is one of the most aggressive advances we can make in the future. While the promotion of free birth control is an aggravating factor to many, the reality is that our earth is growing at a pace much faster than we can accommodate. There are so many reasons for free birth control, but first and foremost, I see it as a safety measure to protect our youth.
Thank you for being honest, voicing your opinion and setting the stage for reality. How refreshing for someone to utilize an ethical appeal and in my opinion logical appeal, to educate others on such a controversial topic.
Very informative blog! Thanks!
