Grammar School Abortion Clinics Expand in Britain
To use the terminology of E.U. bureauweenies, Britain's public schools have claimed a "competency" that shoves parents another step toward obsolescence.
Sexual health clinics are to be opened in secondary schools to hand out contraception and help arrange abortions.
Pupils as young as 11 will be able to drop in for free condoms, contraceptive pills, morning-after pills, pregnancy testing and screening for sexually-transmitted diseases.
Parents will be made aware of the clinics but will not be told if their children have attended.
Hundreds of schools already run sexual health clinics but many more are expected to follow suit after researchers praised a pilot scheme involving 16 schools in deprived parts of Bristol.
A research team from the University of the West of England concluded that pupils are more likely to use sex advice services if they are based at school. According to their report, the 16 clinics, catering for 11,805 pupils, received around 500 visits a month from pupils, most aged between 14 and 16 but some as young as 11.
The researchers tracked 515 youngsters over 15 months and found that nurses gave 55 girls the morning-after pill, with one receiving it three times.
Nurses also carried out 213 pregnancy tests for 137 girls and found that nine were pregnant.
One girl became pregnant three times and was referred each time to an abortion advisory service.
Running abortion mills out of grammar schools accomplishes more than keeping the population down in "deprived" parts of Britain. By edging parents out of even the most personal matters, the State has moved closer to its objective of obliterating the family, the last major obstacle to absolute indoctrination and control.
Now liberals can do more than sneer at "family values." They can stamp them out altogether.
On tips from Lyle and Oiao.

One gets the feeling that there's no one left to say "OK, enough already" in Britain.

Just as long as its Liberals and Moonbats that keep ABORTING their future, that's fine with me. Their fascist ideology dies with them.
Sad thins is that in Britain, it will be Islam that fills in the vacuum.

Strange how moonbats are against Capital punishment but have NO problem MURDERING a fetus.
Hence why I despise the left.

The very same people who are so eager to put the means of free sexual activity in the hands of 11-year olds are the ones who insist that 15-year olds are incapable of freely assenting to marriage.
The same.

So what happens when a 13 year old Muslim girl grabs a free condom or whatever, and gets "honour" murdered by here brother or dad because of it?
This is the kind of predicament moonbats get themselves in, and the "solution" will be to allow the Muslims to be schooled separately.
This won't end well.

I second forest's point of view.

"soft eugenics" - you convince them to prune their family trees because they cant cope with a life made artificially more difficult.

The problem isn't that a school nurse gave an eleven year-old girl the morning after pill. The problem is that the eleven year-old girl was having sex. That is what we should be outraged about. That is where the trouble lies. The sex led to the clinic; the clinic didn't lead to the sex.
Before we complain about parents being pushed out, we should ask the parents why their daughters and sons are having sex at eleven.

They are having sex because the school is socializing them to do so, with a safety net, just in case........
The parents are not in the loop, but they have allowed the gov to allow this. So yes, they are a part of the problem by not stopping it before it came to this.
The kids are going to do what the School Socializes them to think is OK.

DRF is right. I really would like to find out just where Liberals are willing to draw the line and say "this is going too far!".

Kharn: The phrase "this is going too far!" will probably be the last thing the Libs utter, right before the jihadists' swords fall on the backs of their necks. At least that seems to be the case in "Airstrip One".

Irony, I expected someone to point this out long before me:
Pupils as young as 11 will be able to drop in for free condoms, contraceptive pills, morning-after pills, pregnancy testing and screening for sexually-transmitted diseases.
...
nurses gave 55 girls the morning-after pill, with one receiving it three times.
These are all the policies that Liberals want to institute in the United States now, because according to them Abstinence [read evil Republican value system] isn't working -- well guess what isn't working either?
Well actually it is -- because asserting control over your children, and encouraging children not to conform to conservative views of sex and marriage is the goal.

Abstinence itself might work. Abstinence-only sex education doesn't work. Abstinence-only sex education is a system in which students are only told not to have sex. They are either told nothing of condoms or hormonal methods or are lied to and given exaggerated failure rates.
The studies show that students who receives only abstinence-only sex ed, on average, delay their first sexual experience by eighteen months--nothing to sneeze at--but are far less likely to protect themselves from disease and pregnancy by using a condom when they do have that experience.
There is a difference between providing condoms and encouraging children not to conform to conservative views of sex and marriage. It is the same difference between "allowed" and "enforced."

Hey DRF how about being a "parent" and providing your own child with sex education?
If I want my child to have condoms and the like I shall provide them myself. This is exactly what I said it is. The usurping of parental authority and values. Especially since these things are available to children without parental notification, or consent.
My child cannot get a tattoo, or a tongue-piercing without my consent, but contraception and an abortion is OK?
It is not the role of the Government to take over my parenting under the auspice of Government responsibility .
Seeing the mess the British Liberal Government has done of this regard should make everyone terrified.
