Maine refuses federal funds for abstinence-only education
Guess why?
Federal guidelines don't allow any of the money to be used to teach “safe sex” practices. Wow. Yeah, god forbid your kids have safe sex.
“This money is more harmful than it is good,” [Maine Public Health Director Dora Anne] Mills said. “You can't talk about comprehensive reproductive information.”
Kudos to Maine for putting teens’ health and education first!
