Social Engineering

There of course are many upon many of people who are against contraceptives for women. There are schools that try to prevent it all together like some schools in the south who ban Judy Blume books for talking to children about the subject matter. At abortion clinics, there are people who protest every single day outside and try to get the clinics to close. Just the other day I saw a sign in a persons yard that said close abortion clinics and re-give elders medicare.

In health classes around the country, we try to teach our young children the preventatives to take and to just say no when they are confronted with peer pressures. We must teach our children how to be safe if they are going to engage in these types of behaviors because that personally is the only way we are going to make a difference.

There are clinics like Planned Parenthood where children can go and feel safe to ask for something that they feel like they could not ask their parent. And its also free for the most part. They also offer the morning after pill which is a technological advancement, but its the place they can go that counts.
