Parents don't know what is right for their own kids, and passing down 'saving yourself till marriage' is a bad thing

I was just on facebook and M.O.M for America, Inc. posted an article about Planned Parenthood. Being interested, I read it to see what the organization is planning to do.

You can read the article here.

I am not a parent yet, but I have close friends that have a 15 month old and this will be something they will have to deal with, and when the time comes, something I'll have to deal with, I'm sure.

the first things that started to put my hackles up is "Social Change Initiative". over the last few years, Social and Change have become dirty words.

After reading the article on how Planned Parenthood wants to teach you the right way to teach your kids about sex, masturbation, contraceptives and homosexuality, I felt the urge to blog about it. Children as young as the day they were born are wanting to know what sex is? give me a break.

Hypothetically, if we promoted our children to have sex younger, who would they have sex with? Are we going to lower the age limit on going into Strip clubs or to buy and watch porn? Not to mention, its like handing a free pass to child sex predators to prey on children because 'they are sexually experementing'

And so much for 'saving yourself for marriage' 'it's a sacred act' and all that chastity stuff I was taught and am still living by today. What ever happened to those values?

I've have talked to some female friends of mine, the ones that didn't save themselves till marriage, and they've told me that they wished they would have, and that the respect me for holding out till the wedding night. I, personally don't think sex is shameful, as the article refers to it, I think it's sacred and should be shared with the one you are going to spend the rest of your life with.

So what do you think?

  1. Very nice. I'll read the article now and give my own two cents over at Confessions. Heck, I may even send this link to R.S. McCain or Legal Insurrection.
