They Don't Ask For Much... Just For Your Children
At what point does it stop being "teen outreach" and start being "a creepy need to indoctrinate other people's kids"?
At 14, Sandy Milice has more experience with activism than many adults. This summer, she registered voters door-to-door and protested a visit by President Bush...."Our goal is to foster healthy, responsible youth," said Alesha Smith, director of education and public affairs for Planned Parenthood of South Palm Beach and Broward counties. "They learned about being informed and the importance of informing others."
Children? In political "clubs"? "Informing"? Eeesh.
When a fourteen year old knocks on my door, I may or may not be willing to purchase cookies or magazines. I don't know if I'm ready to engage our nation's "healthy, responsible youth" on the abortion question.
See, the trouble is, they're children. Idiots, in other words.
No offense to my extensive "tweens" readership.
