Can a parent sue a school authority in the UK for encouraging under age sex disguised as care?
School authorities in the UK have allowed school nurses to provide contraceptive implants and injections to girls as young as 13.
The age of consent in the UK is 16.
The school nurses are forbidden to inform the girls parents that they have provided this procedure without the child's consent under confidentiality laws even though the girls receiving this treatment not to get impregnated are under the legal age of consent.
What message does this send out to our children regarding sexual activity and how can a child of 13 have the right to receive contraception without their parents knowledge and permission?
Is this not facilitating irresponsible behaviour that may damage a developing child sexually while they are under age effectively?
Our children are exposed everyday on a conscious level to porn by the use of the smart-phones and computers and on a subliminal level by the hypersexualisation of our society through the media.
Does the Government tacitly condone this as well because in the UK we are experiencing the lowest teenage pregnancy rates since 1969.
If laws though are being broken by children who feel they have the right to break the age of consent then should those laws be lowered 16 to 13?After all is not the school encouraging the children by allowing them the power to receive contraception without the childs parents having any say in the matter and is the school breaking an ethical and morals by doing this in the first place?
Is there an evil in society that is rapacious and predatory and wants only to corrupt our children and destroy their innocence?
Your inability to define the question...probably due to your own....sexual proclivities...has still not been answered.The questions is a legal one concerning the age of consent and parental responsibilities...it is some of you that are f***ked up and I'm not scared of sex I can see how what should be binding and sacred has been reduced to physical pleasure just because the body feel it with the mind corrupted controlling it and leading it.

I am sorry to say that hormones play a big part when a child gets to the age of 13; yes it is illegal but nature takes its course. Getting condoms for them is better than them having sex and having children. Lets face it, they would probably have sex anyway even if contraception wasn't given and then what? Babies having babies?
The school IS NOT encouraging it, it is just taking protective measures against the inevitable rebelling due to fact of nature.

Nope. The school is saying, damn, kids be having sex at 13! Better make sure the ones who do (and it is a minority who do, despite what fearmongers would have you believe) are protected.

So in your fucked up world view 13 year olds having children is better than them being provided birth control? Sometimes real life intrudes.

F**K sending a message. Would you really prefer a 13-year-old gets pregnant or gets HIV if it might dissuade two others from having sex?
