The story
School officials in Portland, Maine, voted to make birth control pills available to students at one of the city's middle schools.
WOW. I think I must be getting really old, but this is quite shocking. There was one girl at my middle school that got pregnant and had an abortion, so this is good. I must just be an old farty prude. or prudey fart. Whichever you choose.
