Abortion Information Handed Out in Schools
What if your teenager could get an abortion without telling you about it and got help from their teacher? It's happening in Siouxland. Right now in Nebraska, your teen's teacher has to give them info on how to get an abortion without parent notification.
That policy is coming under fire. Lawmakers are looking at a bill to change all that.
At the beginning of every school year, kids in 7th through 12th grade take home a note explaining options for abortion. But administrators at one Siouxland school want to know why it's their job to pass that information along.
The State of Nebraska has its schools handing out touchy material to its students. It explains if a young girl wants to get an abortion without telling her parents she can go to the courts and ask for a waiver. The letter's even passed along to South Sioux High boys. One educator says he doesn't see how the schools should have anything to do with such a subject.
Steve Rector, Superintendent said, " to designate abortion information to kids, I think we weren't trained to do that, that's not our job."
Joan Bartels, South Sioux City parent said, "it's not necessarily the school's place to have to do that."
Bartels teaches night classes at South Sioux City. Her daughter's is just one of the students who gets the letter. But Joan says she would like her daughter to come to her for help. "I feel like I'm a strong guiding force in my daughter's life and I would not want her to make a decision like that without my knowledge."
Some people want to keep the letter in the schools to raise awareness. Planned Parenthood says not all kids can safely turn to their parents for help.
Bobbie Kierstead of Planned Parenthood stated, " few of us would deny that such guidance ideally should come from the teenager's parents, but because we don't live in an ideal world we feel it's critical that teens know if they come a home environment where telling their parent would expose them to danger or mistreatment that the have an option."
Most girls do involve their parents when deciding on an abortion. But there are about 75 girls a year in Nebraska who go through the court to avoid confronting their parents.

Keep your kids out of the state-run Schools where the culture of death exists. The Government does not have the best wishes of your child at hand.

"Every child is our child."
-- Motto of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).
"To achieve One World Government it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, their loyalty to family traditions and national identification."
Brock Chisolm, when director of UN World Health Organisation
1948 -- UNESCO president and Fabian Socialist, Sir Julian Huxley, calls for a radical eugenic policy in UNESCO: Its Purpose and Its Philosophy. He states: "Thus, even though it is quite true that any radical eugenic policy of controlled human breeding will be for many years politically and psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake that much that is now unthinkable may at least become thinkable."
"In order to stabilize world population, it is necessary to eliminate 350,000 people a day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it's just as bad not to say it." - Oceanographer Jaques Cousteau Published in the Courier, a publication of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)

Don't be silly. If they knew how to read and write, they wouldn't need pointless civil service jobs, handing out condoms.

Union workers are out working while their 'friends' in the Democrat Party are using the workers' own money to skirt their daughters away for abortions and to teach their sons how nice it would be for other guys to ejaculate in their mouths. Some friends.

Is there even one argument left for allowing the State to remain in the education business, in
any capacity?Their teachers make stratospheric salaries, but hardly teach. Their regulators are all-powerful, but ineffective. Their administrators, charged with maintaining the integrity of the system, all have their hands in the till. The special interests swarm over the students, bombarding them with propaganda until they have no idea what to believe.
And then there's this.
Sauve qui peut! If you have school age children, do whatever you must to keep them out of that evil machine. No luxury, convenience, or leisure is worth allowing young minds and lives to be twisted in this way.
Freedom, Wealth, and Peace,
