So it's ok to undermind the parents and let the kids know that they don't have to worry about what there parents say it's what the school says (Government Controlled) that matters......

bringing society down step by step, that's the goal.

And yes, when you freely give little kids rubbers and pills you are practically telling them to have sex, and the peer pressure to the ones that aren't doing it will just get worse, I mean, gee, the school said it's ok!


What's next, free needles, so they don't share? Why not just give them drugs outright so you at least know where they're getting it from (the school), that way you know they don't put themselves around dangerous drug dealers and/or get some bad drugs, at least the school will know that they have "healthy" drugs.

How Birth Control Pills Work (for 6th Graders... 11 year olds)

At the beginning of each menstrual cycle, estrogen levels begin to rise. Estrogen helps thicken the lining of the uterus (endometrium) to prepare for a fertilized egg. Once estrogen levels peak, about 14 days into the menstrual cycle, one of the ovaries releases an egg. This monthly release of an egg is called ovulation.

After ovulation, progesterone, another reproductive hormone, begins to rise. Over the next seven days, progesterone further prepares the endometrium for a fertilized egg. Conception occurs when a fertilized egg implants itself in the uterine lining.

If conception does not occur, both estrogen and progesterone levels drop, signaling the now thickened uterine lining to slough off or shed, and menstruation begins.

Birth control pills are a synthetic form of the hormones progesterone and estrogen. They prevent ovulation by maintaining more consistent hormone levels. Without a peak in estrogen, then, the ovary doesn't get the signal to release an egg. No egg means no possibility for fertilization and pregnancy. They also thicken cervical mucus so the sperm cannot reach the egg, and make the lining of the uterus unreceptive to the implantation of a fertilized egg.
