Hey, did you hear they are going to make Plan B birth control available without a prescription to girls 15 and older?
Wow, progress!
Well, actually not so much.
1) Exactly what kind of ID do most 15 year-olds have that prove age? Drivers license? Maybe a learners permit in some states. Passport? Possibly, if the girl can get her hands on a document most parents have securely stored, if they have one at all.
So, how does a scared 15 year-old prove she is 15?
2) I didn't know sexual activity in teens never starts before age 15 and that girls under the age of 15 can't get pregnant?
What? That's not true? 14 year-old girl's bodies can't "shut that down?"
Well, hell, that's inconvenient.
