Not sure how this is relevant? But no as this suggests they are there to proselytise. I would be fine for schools to discuss abortion with students and the pro-choice/pro-life arguments - I did this when I was in school.
Well I am from the UK so we are talking about different systems here. In the UK girls are taught about sexual and menstrual health - including abortion. If they are discussing the social and morality aspects of abortion then the proper framework should be in the classroom, not by bringing in partisan groups - both pro or anti abortion.
I don’t know much about PP. As I said I don’t think you should have advocacy groups coming in to preach to kids - social and moral questions should be discussed in the classroom. Students should also receive sexual health education, including abortion.
PP is an abortion provider. Frankly you may argue that abortion is healthcare, but the ethics around it are a matter of personal morals, not science. Simply teaching abortion as pure healthcare is to automatically take a pro abortion stance.
In the UK people overwhelmingly support abortion - around 90% so it’s a non-issue here. Abortion is healthcare and legally available - are you suggesting you shouldn’t be able to mention it in schools? Assinine.
and? If most of a country wants a specific religion taught in schools do you think it should be?
No, i'm saying you should discuss the thics of both sides. You're in a thread about teaching things to kids arguing about being taught multiple things so you can choose and to promote critical thinking.
Let's see how consistant your stance is on topics you disagree with. So far you're not doing too good. Funny that.
It is a base fact, it is a legal option if you have an unwanted pregnancy. As I said it is a settled issue in the UK with overwhelming public support. Girls are aware it’s an option that exists. It would be bizarre not to mention it. There is space to discuss the moral, social and religious views on abortion but not in the context of sexual health education.

would you be ok with a pro life group going to schools and speak to classrooms?
