Really?
Planned Parenthood gives teenagers lessons on fisting. Teachers take 12 year old girls to get abortions. How can talking about abstinence possibly an "uncomfortable conversation"?

A better choice?
promoting abstinence til marriage is controversial in todays amoral society.
I bet a majority of young people have never heard that concept.
If it had a Mexican flag on it she could have worn it everyday.
but they will throw condoms to the kids and tell them to “get to it”
Only if you don’t have one that reads, “Whoring rocks!”
I’m not a Christian, nor do I think that sexuality necessarily has to be saved for marriage, but I still can’t see what anyone could possibly find offensive about this shirt. It might “lead to uncomfortable discussions about sex”? Geez, are these not schools where they have sex ed classes that teach all sorts of things that parents, and even the kids, may be uncomfortable discussing?
I would go to the mat for the right of this girl to wear this t-shirt, unless there is some sort of general policy against t-shirts with slogans and logos.
Wear a shirt that says “abortion rocks” or “lesbeans have more fun” and you get an award.
Yet if she “bravely” had an abortion right before graduation they would applaud her.
Need a shirt that reads “STD’s are fun, sex ed says so”, send the school faculty the shirts.
Well, we must never have “uncomfortable conversations”, when those conversations don’t support the left’s agenda.
However, when she wore the shirt to school, officials banned the shirt and made her wear a school-issued gym shirt instead, saying the shirt might lead to uncomfortable conversations about sex.
Makes me wish I still practiced law.
Without all this publicity, any attention the girl’s shirt might have drawn would be over in a day or two.
Nearly all of these kinds of stories are overblown media concoctions. But gee, throw it in the trough, and most of the sheep will lap it up.
They are united, it is called the party of the democrat.
They banned it because it is from a Christian organization (LiveOffensively.com now known as LoveOffensively.com).
Pure and simple - religious content is not permitted in public schools, regardless of how well-intentioned. And unfortunately, since schools have rules regarding religious statements, slogans, etc. on clothing, she probably can't fight this successfully.
It's a shame, because it's a great message.
Public schools.
For when you absolutely, positively have no standards.
No real parent send their child to such uneducated idiocy.
Education degree..Ayers has one.
‘Nuff said.
Isn't it the libs who are always yammering on about "dialogue?"
I don’t think this shirt is appropriate either. But nor are pro-gay messages.
