Access to Contraception: Critical Thinking

Should high schools provide free condoms and birth control pills to its students? Why or why not?

Yes they should, because this would allow more students to practice safe sex, like if they were unable to afford condoms or birth control themselves. Doing this would help greatly to prevent unwanted pregnancies from occurring. 

Do parents have the right to know when their children are using contraceptives? Explain your answer.

I feel that parents do have the right to know when their children are using contraceptives that alter the hormones such as birth control pills, because it is something that could possibly have negative side effects. I don't think that parents need to know if their children are using any other type of contraceptives though unless they ask, but I think that the parents would be glad that their child is practicing safe sex if they are going to at all.
