“The Focus is on Reducing Live Births to Teens”

“The focus in on reducing live births to teens.” It sounds like it is right out of the mouthpiece of Planned Parenthood. Think again. It is from Judy Gerrity, project coordinator for wellness and prevention of teen pregnancy at Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS), as quoted in this morning’s Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

If you are not shocked and chilled, you should be. It is a shift from preventing teen pregnancy to reducing live births. And, it raises the question as to how live births will be reduced and the obvious answer is by abortion.

MPS is revamping its “human growth and development” curriculum from kindergarten through high school. The School Board has not yet reviewed the proposed changes. United Way of Greater Milwaukee wants to target fourth-graders to reduce the city’s teen birth rate by almost half in 2015, says the Journal Sentinel.

Details are sketchy but the goal is alarming. The African-American abortion numbers at 24% of Wisconsin abortions are already way too high when compared to the African-American population base of 6%. Milwaukee parents should reject the goal and be very wary of the details of this plan.
