Musings about Plan b and that this “is NOT for the children”

In a letter Monday to U.S. District Judge Edward R. Korman in New York, who has called the age restrictions “politically motivated” and “scientifically unjustified,” the administration said it would drop its appeal in the case and abide by Korman’s order to make Plan B One-Step contraceptive pills available to women and girls of any age without a prescription.

Plan B – the “emergency contraceptive”.  Contraceptive – sure thing, bucko.  The sperm and the egg have fused to create a zygote at that point  – a new life HAS been created.  Plan B kills that new life by keeping that zygote, that baby, from being implantable in the woman’s uterus.  I disagree with those that say that a life never existed because without implantation, that zygote could never become a unborn baby as it would never become “a fetus”.  All human babies need nourishment, care, and attention both before the actual time of birth / physical separation from the mom as well as after.  If it is not cherished after the birthing, that baby will die as well, so I consider “emergency contraceptive” to be a “emergency canard”.

You know, Government should first do no harm.  Yet, what harm will this do to the children, who for the sake of “reproductive rights”, who have been moved from being innocent children to being  one of those “women of all ages” by simple dint of a judge’s order?

How much harder has this judge (and the Progressives pushing their sexual libertine policy) made it for Parents to raise their children according to THEIR morality rather than Government’s?  Eleven, twelve, thirteen – walk into the drug store, make a purchase, off you go.  WHY does Government make this kind and this important of a decision?  WHY do we let Government go right into the very heart of a family and take over, telling the kids “don’t wait – go have fun and everything will be OK in the end” when responsible loving parents are saying “No, no, no, no!  Don’t DO that – you are not READY for that!”.  Culture is already against the “wait until you marry” thought – sex is everywhere and glorified in song, tv, movie, and media.  Traditional morality is just for squares.  Look at Government policies – can you really say that Government is pro-family?  Maybe in voice, but not in deed, policy, and programs.

Just as with the Schools, no more parental notification.  One more attempt to kneecap parental authority and responsibility – and with legal authority.  With this, what is a parent to say to their child?  If they get too steamed, the kid can just turn around and say “if you keep treating me this way, I’ll just call that 800 number”.  And who do you think Social Services is going to believe?

But of course, not a word about has been said by the “Reproductive Rights” folks about statutory rape and sexual predators, right?  Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen – if they need Plan B, they have legally been raped in almost all states (somewhere in that age range), right?  Sure, Plan B’s supporters think they have taken care of the physical needs, but what of the emotional needs, the spiritual needs?

“Women of all ages” is just a lie – yet they say it with a straight face (and a black heart).

“S’alright”, they say, “Parents will be there for them”.  Right.  You know, if I had small kids again, and if I didn’t love them as much as I did, I would be asking myself:

“If Government wants to denigrate my role so much, and then provide almost everything else for them via the gazillion programs we pay for (food, shelter, clothes, medical, educational, transportation), let them take them.  If Government so believes it knows better than we do in how to raise our children, let them.  Here they are.”

Except how good will they be in wiping away the tears?  Innocence lost…you may now thank your Government in finishing the job.
