High Schoolers are Pro-Life
A new national poll finds high school seniors take a pro-life position
on abortion saying it's morally wrong and supporting legislative
proposals that would limit abortions and help women find alternatives.
The poll also found 72 percent of females in the class of 2006 would
not consider an abortion if they became pregnant.
[...] When asked, some 67 percent of high school seniors said abortion
is either always (23%) or usually (44%) morally wrong. Just 31 percent
said it was a morally correct decision.
How can one find this surprising? These kids are not stupid; they know
that their parents could have offed them for no greater reason than
personal expedience with the full approval of the law and society. A
staggering number of their potential classmates simply aren't there;
they were disposed of as medical waste. Do we think they don't know
that?
Slightly less than half of the teens polled said abortions should be
allowed when a woman is under 18 and unmarried or when the baby will
have a serious birth defect. Just 40 percent said abortions should be
allowed for poor women and only 29 percent said abortions should be
allowed when a woman doesn't want more children.
Some 72 percent of teen girls say they would not consider an abortion
and, of all high school seniors, just 13 percent would counsel a
pregnant friend to consider an abortion. Some 54 percent of seniors say
they would suggest adoption and 26 percent say they would encourage a
pregnant friend to keep her baby.
Meanwhile, 69 percent of the male teens surveyed said they would not
want their partner to consider an abortion.
In other words, they still have some ideals and standards and haven't
been hooked by the temptations of individual autonomy, greed, and
expedience.
[...] On whether abortions should be legal or illegal, the poll find
females were slightly more inclined to oppose legal abortions. White
teens were more pro-life than blacks, which contradicts polls of adults
on the issue.
This seems to back up what I've always believed to be true. The
primary purpose of abortion is to get guys off the hook. When a woman
is convinced that her body is exclusively her own, that a woman needs a
man like a fish needs a bicycle, and that she can kill her child to
advance her career, the real benefactors are the young men who no
longer have to bite the bullet and provide support for their kids. The
Wilt Chamberlains of the world can bed 20,000 women and never have to
be fathers.
Evangelical Christians were much more likely to oppose abortion than
teens from Catholic of mainline Protestant backgrounds. High school
seniors with non-Christian religious views were overwhelmingly in favor
of abortions.
Hence the big push to remove religion from kids when they get to the
university. (Don't tell me the agenda doesn't exist - I've
worked at one for 26 years. I've heard it.) In the USA,
"non-Christian religious views" pretty much means atheists,
agnostics, and New Agers. There aren't that many practicing, orthodox
Hindus out there. Dechristianizing the kids is the surest way to
convert them from pro-life to pro-choice, and abortion-on-demand is the
defining political goal for the secularists.
What, after all, does Satan really want? Does he care whether the USA
stands or falls, or what economic system we use? Does he give a rat's
rear end about social security reform? What he wants is to dim that
spark of God-light within us, until we walk gently, smiling , polite,
and utterly clueless, straight into the gates of Hell. He comes as an
angel of light, not as a ravener. What better tool does he have than to
pervert our ideas of human love by decoupling them from the human
product of that love. "Love" that produces inward gratification
without bearing external fruit is not the love of God.
[...] According to the poll two-thirds of high school seniors would
require parental consent before a girl under 18 could get an abortion.
The children themselves know that there are things they are not ready
for; that they are not just miniature adults with acne. When will the
supposed adults of our society figure that out.
Sociology students at Hamilton College, in conjunction with the Zogby
International polling firm, surveyed 1,000 high school seniors by phone
and the survey has a 3 percent margin of error.

They also take virginity pledges. Then they "screw up" and very often
discover that abortion isn't quite as "morally wrong" as they originally
thought.

Exactly. I can certainly relate to that. I was Pro-Life until I actually
became pregnant myself and took the time and effort to become really
informed about foetal development, pregnancy related illnesses and risks of
child-birth. Then I ended up questioning myself just exactly what it was
that got me into this sentimental emotional crap that had me believing an
embryo was a thinking feeling human being! I learned it wasn't! Choosing
an abortion is o.k! There's nothing to get all mushy and sentimental about,
nor is it necessary to feel guilty about choosing abortion. The best thing
that ever happened to me was that I actually learned something about
reproduction above and beyond those grainy black/white films I was shown at
school.
I really think that a poll should be taken of women who had been pregnant
and who had actually given birth. As a person who's been there and done
that, I would find it unconscionable to deny women the choice to abort or
continue with the pregnancy. Polling naive teenagers is rather pointless.
They're not fully and adequately informed about the subject. Teenagers tend
to be overly emotional and sentimental anyway. They're also not often very
rational...raging horomones and all that. ;-)

Teaching kids to avoid the situation

Not caring and just letting them get into the situation that may cause
their wanting to get an abortion.

That's up to the administration. There is no reason or call for PP to
compromise their educational standards.

Option 3: Realizing that most of them WILL get into the situation
where they could become pregnant, and give them the honest and complete
information that they need to minimize the risk of pregnancy and
catching STDs. Things like the facts about condoms, birth control,
other contraceptives, morning after pills, RU 486, and other similar
information.
If you do not give them the information to reduce the risk of
pregnancy, then you are effectively encouraging them to get abortions
when they do become pregnant.

Everyone should note how this comment didn't address the issue. The
fact is, Osprey and his wife have had a number of what he calls
"unplanned" children. One he aborted, others were born. Osprey claims
that these "unplanned" children were not "unwanted," but has yet to
explain why he would not plan "wanted" children.

I realize that most women aren't as fertile as the women in my family.
Meet my first child, I got pregnant with him on the birth control pill,
meet my second child I got pregnant with an IUD in me, they had to
remove it to keep from hurting her. Obviously neither of the children
(long ago adults now) were planned pregnancies,

One he aborted, others were born.

I aborted? How in the world could I have aborted a child???
Osprey claims

Now Barnes thinks people need to give him an explanation as to why they did
or didn't have children. How sad...he is truly breaking apart.

I aborted? How in the world could I have aborted a child???


Osprey thinks claiming no responsibility for his children is a virtue.

So you think men can abort children...how can that be?





Osprey claims

that these "unplanned" children were not "unwanted," but has yet to
explain why he would not plan "wanted" children.


Now Barnes thinks people need to give him an explanation as to why they
did
or didn't have children. How sad...he is truly breaking apart.


So Osprey won't explain this one.

Because I don't have to moron, you don't understand that.
My wife and I have four beautiful children, all wanted, all loved.
That bothers you.

Do you like making a fool out of yourself? Or does it come naturally?

Now THAT'S FUNNY!

If you do not give them the information to reduce the risk of
pregnancy, then you are effectively encouraging them to get abortions
when they do become pregnant.

Teaching abstinence is perfectly fine, but most kids in their late
teens, with hormones racing, don't choose abstinence. That being the
case, teaching it is less effective than teaching prophilactics.

until they get pregnant.


So why are they getting pregnant?

Which is better..

Teaching kids to avoid the situation
or
Not caring and just letting them get into the situation that may cause
their wanting to get an abortion.


Option 3: Realizing that most of them WILL get into the situation
where they could become pregnant, and give them the honest and complete
information that they need to minimize the risk of pregnancy and
catching STDs. Things like the facts about condoms, birth control,
other contraceptives, morning after pills, RU 486, and other similar
information.

If you do not give them the information to reduce the risk of
pregnancy, then you are effectively encouraging them to get abortions
when they do become pregnant.

Don't forget abstinence. It too, should be included in teaching kids the
honest and complete truth.

However, "Don't have sex" does nothing to prepare them for when they
do. Only a minority of today's teens remain virgins until graduation,
and far fewer until marriage. The purpose of sex ed should be to tell
them in an honest and comprehensive manner what can happen if you have
sex, and how to prevent as much of the unwanted consequences from
happening when you do.
You only gave two options to me, neither of which was a good one. That
is why I gave a third. Yes, in a comprehensive sex ed program,
abstinence is talked about and encouraged, but it should not be the
only option talked about, not should much time be spent on it since
that is the one that is easiest to understand and has the fewest
complications and is the least likely option that will be followed.
Just teaching them about abstinence is essential the same as your
second option, because that is what you will be doing, not giving them
the information that they need and thus letting them get into a
situation which will cause them to want to get an abortion.
