Lynn High Schools to Provide Birth Control to Combat High Teen Pregnancy Rate (Mass.)
New England Cable News (NECN) ^ | Nov. 14, 2019 | Kathryn Sotnik

Posted on 11/14/2019 8:36:50 PM PST by ConservativeStatement

A unanimous vote by the Lynn school committee Thursday night will make condoms, birth control and emergency contraceptives available at high schools in the Massachusetts city.

The meeting room was packed with parents giving their input, many concerned it's taking away their parental rights.

"She's 14. I don't believe she's ready for sex. I think kids are very immature these days. By handing out birth control and condoms, it's like giving them permission to go out and have sex," said parent Johnnieann Pahlm.

"She's 14. I don't believe she's ready for sex..." How dare you say that as a parent. The gubmint knows best.

The local abortion clinic is already drooling over the money to be made.

Are any of the mom’s on welfare?

Then sterilize the kids now!

Save money on “reproductive healthcare” later.

Give them a free iPhone or Air Jordans in exchange for getting sterilized.

Actually, the baby-killing clinic will make money only on those kids who have sex and don't employ reliable contraception.

Chasity devices should be sold there. 100% guarantee that it will work...condoms are only 50% effective.

I can remember a “Planned Parenthood” advocate stating that condoms “do not contribute to promiscuity.” Well well, what have we here? a total refutation of that and when was the last time you ever saw “promiscuity” in a story. It is all a big lie, they know it, and they are not ashamed of it.

Looks like their craze for taking away parental rights is just another bill for the taxpayer. How about a dose of Sunday School in a real Bible believing church for not only the teen but the school employees. We are going down a slippery slope full speed ahead in America.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

When I was stationed at Hanscom, Lynn had the not so affection nickname of “Lynn, Lynn, the city of Sin”

Aw, well Tonight's a pub crawl

A sh**ty dive ball

Hit the Dirty Feet tonight before your mom calls

In a fumble

It's a close call

Not gettin' caught by the cops, dragged to city hall

It's MY band who set up the sh*tshow in the dance hall

It's MY girlfriend who broke up that little punk brawl

Nothing like a fall, more like a cell wall

But it's where my mom's from, so f**k 'em all!

(Chorus)

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Told the ?s never f*ck about this town

Told them if they did they'd get a Boston clampdown

Now let's go drink and the ?'s closed down

Now let's get the beer from the store and triple crown

Knuckles down, live sound while you hop right down

Dance around to the uppity sound

How now, brown cow? I'm just f**kin' around

Damn you gotta love this God-rejected town

(Chorus)

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn, the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Hail, rude boy! Where you at?

Drinkin' Pabst with your girl and your band at your flat!

Hail, rude girl! Where you at?

Drinkin' Pabst with your man and your band at your flat!

Hail, rude boy! Where you at?

Drinkin' Pabst with your girl and your band at your flat!

Hail, rude girl! Where you at?

Drinkin' Pabst with your man and your band at your flat!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

Never going out the way you went in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

Lynn, Lynn the city of sin

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

The worst d*mn town, the worst damn town

The worst d*mn town that you ever been in!

""I have teenagers who are in high school, and tell me, 'I have a pregnancy scare, what do I do? Where do I go? I want to talk to my mom, but I'm scared.' They wish they could go to a nurse and get Plan B or birth control," said another teen mom, Jailynn Enriquez."

Maybe the school should start teaching responsibility at an early age.

Than they practice responsibility themselves and not make it easer for the girls to get away with it.

Maybe a program that teaches ways to be friends with a boy and not have sex. How to date, etc.

Might as well provide rooms to screw in, as well.

Schools have become cesspools. They are at the leading edge of societal devolution.

This is outrage exhaustion. PULL YOUR KIDS FROM PUBLIC SCHOOLS for God's sake!

In the process, get used to the idea that your dreamy flag waving bastion of freedom vision of the USA is D-E-A-D. There is nothing left in those cinders.

There ARE good people here, but if you are imagining that there is hope that we can "rise up" and retake the controls of power from these mad dog socialist lunatics, you are frankly dumber than a box of rocks.

It is over, and I am frankly very happy that Trump has waked people up to this. We are facing... maybe 30-40% of the populace who are either hate filled cryptocommies or very stupid sympathizers who are too afraid of being thought "fox news bubble heads" or "fundamentalists" to be in any significant opposition. These cryptocommies run every institution of power, and are completely in control of the education establishments.

GET YOUR KIDS OUT. Private school them, or home school them. Figure out a way for one of you to take a salary cut and do a home business and take a standard of living cut if you need to.

In the mean time, consider that perpetual wailing about the godless libs accomplishes precisely zero. IMO the ONLY thing that might work (and this may not even work, but it is the only shot) is a peaceful grass roots revolution, in the form of an article V convention.

My fondest dream is that when it becomes obvious that Trump cannot drain the swamp (I look for the banker/entertainment/state dept elite to nuke the markets in an attempt to take out Trump when this impeachment stuff fizzles) that he leads the way for CONCON.

Otherwise we will just have steadily more of this crap until the poison completely permeates everything. Party's over people. Wake up.
