Pill Poppers?

(Fox News) - A middle school in Portland, Maine is considering making birth control pills available to sixth, seventh and eighth graders without parental consent. The Portland Press Herald reports the school already makes condoms available — and will consider expanding the policy during a meeting Wednesday.

Students only need a blanket consent form from parents allowing them to be treated at the school health center. The children are not required to inform parents about whatever treatment they receive. The school says that last year about four percent of the students who visited the health center reported being sexually active.
