Roe v. Wade

| | Comments (0)

January 22 is the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision - confirming the right of American women to terminate their pregnancies.

If you know me at all, you know I am pro-choice.

Regardless of your beliefs about abortion, you need to talk to your children about what it is and your beliefs about abortion. They will come to thier own decisions about abortion, which may differ from yours. How will you manage this?

1 in 4 US women has had an abortion. What are you doing to help these numbers go down?

With our new administration, and new sex ed programs in place, I am hopeful we will see a corresponding drop in the teen and unplanned pregnancy rates and a corresponding drop in the abortion rate in our country.

In the mean time, I'll keep working on you parents out there to make sure your kiddos can make informed decisions about their sexuality. Even if I have to drag you kicking and screaming to the conversations.
