Planned Parenthood has been in the news lately. Locally, contraception and pregnancy testing account for 77 percent of its activity, while only 5 percent of its activity is abortion.

In my opinion, contraception and sex education reduce the need for abortions. I support our local Planned Parenthood clinics and urge young people to utilize their services.

The average age of first intercourse is 17, like it or not. How old were you?
