I apologize for such a "heavy" topic on the 4th of July.
I do wish you all a Happy Independence Day! But what the heck is
going on here? "School Implants IUD's in Girls as Young as 6th
Grade Without their Parents Knowing". http://www.lifenews.com/2015/07/02/schools-implant-iuds-in-girls-as-young-as-6th-grade-without-their-parents-knowing/
In Washington state, it's funded through a
Medicaid program called Take Charge. Planned Parenthood of course promotes it
on their website. Teens can apply for it using their income (which is
non-existent) and they don't have to use their parent's insurance. "If
you do not want your parents to know you're using birth control and keep the
services you receive confidential, you may apply for Take Charge. Your parents'
insurance will not be billed."
The same schools that are offering this,
don't allow the students to buy soft drinks or candy bars at school - because
those are unhealthy. And I bet those same students would be suspended
from school if they were found with even a baby aspirin in their possession.
How can this be legal?? What can we
do to stop it?
This makes me feel helpless and sad. But I know that’s not doing any good. Shaking my head and mumbling “what is this
world coming to” is no longer an option.
We have to do something. What
should we do?
1. Pray – beg Jesus to work through us
2. Be charitable no matter what.
3. Vote – we need to be informed voters and
vote in every election.
4. Talk to our own children – be their
parents; don’t leave that job to the government.
5. Read, research stay informed about what’s
going on in the world- especially in our country.
#5 is REALLY difficult for me.
What’s accurate? What’s true? How do we choose our battles? Should I really worry about what’s going on
in Washington as long as I am voting for and supporting the right candidates in
Louisiana?
Please enlighten me with your ideas J.
Happy 4th!
