A May 3 Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article focused on an effort by United Way of Greater Milwaukee to reduce teen pregnancy in Milwaukee.
Eliminating teenage pregnancy is something we’re all in favor of, but mixing United Way, Planned Parenthood, sex ed and Disney princesses into the mix is hardly the solution.
United Way is tied very closely to Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin (click here for a 2010 pledge form, listing PPWI as a “Community Health Charity”). In addition, United Way and PPWI are members of a “Healthy Youth Alliance,” pushing comprehensive sex ed across Wisconsin. The list of ties goes on and on.
The point is this: United Way refers these young girls to PPWI for treatment or “services.” PPWI has been shown willing to cover up purported statutory rape, sending these young girls right back to their abusers. It’s a vicious circle, rather than a deplorable societal injustice moving toward an end point.
Since when was molesting a child and leaving that child with a child not a major felony? Why aren’t all these hit-and-run sperm donors in prison instead of sexually abusing numerous underage female children?
Continuing to push “comprehensive” sex ed on young girls starting at age 8, and then wondering why the teenage pregnancy rate is so high, is akin to holding a lighted match next to a piece of paper and then wondering why it catches on fire. Cause and effect manifested.
Congratuations on an excellent rebuttal to the JS Online Article.
