It would appear that one school district thinks they are. ABC News reported on a school district in Portland, Maine that’s making birth control pills available to it’s students via the school health center. The King Middle School Committee voted seven to two in favor of offering the contraceptive. By making the pill available to students, is the school leadership telling the students it’s okay for you to be having sex or is it an instance of the students are already doing it, let’s make sure an unwanted pregnancy doesn’t happen? What are your thoughts on this issue?
