Among the notable quotes of the local TV news story?
School officials are not sure what has caused so many pregnancies...
Hmmm. I think I've located the problem, Captain.
In all seriousness, this is an example of a generation truly adrift with no moral anchor, no spiritual purposes and very little guidance from the "responsible" adults who have charge over them. Music, TV and movies, immodest fashions, lack of parental discipline and oversight, counter-productive sex education, and the rapidly diminishing influence of religion all play a role in creating such a sad statistic.
So, will the school district's planned response genuinely seek reform in these areas...or will it be yet another of the non-judgmental "sexual plumbing" courses developed by the likes of Planned Parenthood? If the latter, look for condoms, cucumbers and (yet more) consequences like the one reported in this story.
Does Ohio teach absitnance only education? I remember
wait and think for a while please
perhaps the high numbers of pregnant students have something to do with something called poor sex education?
yes the school in question does have the ABSTINENCE-ONLY SEX ED PROGRAM. and look what effects that have brought....
So, blame an "abstinence only" program because it has not effectively dealt with the greater moral issue brough out in this post: "no moral anchor, no spiritual purposes and very little guidance from the "responsible" adults who have charge over them." In fact, the two comments above are an unfortunate attempt to motivate the tools offered by the culture of death: contraception for kids and abortion for their children, both of which have been a dismal international failure.
My heart aches to become a mom. My husband and I would love to adopt one or two of these babies. Please consider us!!!
