Health clinics in six Denver high schools should be allowed to dispense birth control and emergency contraceptive pills, according to a new report by a health task force.I think that this is a good and a bad thing. It is bad that they have to hand out birth control pills because you shouldn't be getting pregnant at that age. It is good because it is protecting the girls from ruining their life because they can't take care of a baby. I don't think that you should have sex until you are an adult, but if I were a parent and my daughter was going to make that bad decision than at least she would be able to have protection. The article said that they were even handing them out in middle school. I think that's outrageous that girls are getting pregnant at that age. I don't see any reason why they would even have the chance. I think that they need to do something about it, I don't know what but that is pretty unacceptable if you ask me. I t is good that they are trying to stop the pregnancies with the birth control but those kids need to make better decisions.

Ethan you did a great job on your presentation. I totally agree with what you said about technological illiterate teachers. Teachers need to focus on their classes, and with some classes, technology isn't necassary. Try not to say "uuu" to much, but other than a few filler words, awesome job.
Ethan, good job, you were very well prepared and did a great job.
Ethan, you did a really good job! You spoke clear and made good eye contact. Good job!
