However, those classes have been delayed, and some parents are prematurely celebrating while Planned Parenthood steers the ship toward ensuring the classes go on, unbeknownst to many parents. Newspaper columnist Robin Abcarian, in explaining the backstory in a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/local\/abcarian\/la-me-abcarian-sex-ed-20190412-story.html\">Los Angeles Times<\/a>\u00a0column, just couldn&#8217;t hold back her true warm and fuzzy feelings for the abortion provider, writing (emphasis added), &#8220;Personally, <strong>I love Planned Parenthood<\/strong>. I am grateful every day for its unwavering commitment to public health, education and, <strong>yes, abortion services<\/strong>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Abcarian is not unbiased when it comes to abortion, but that&#8217;s no secret. In 2016, she rejoiced when The Center for Medical Progress undercover investigators were indicted by a grand jury for exposing how Planned Parenthood was selling fetal tissue. <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/writer-says-center-medical-progress-indictments-poetic-justice\/\">Abcarian wrote then<\/a>\u00a0that a grand jury&#8217;s decision not to bring charges against Planned Parenthood, instead indicting the investigators, was &#8220;poetic justice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/sex-education-birth-control-access-dont-reduce-teen-pregnancy-studies-show-increase\/\">U.S. and UK studies: Sex education, birth control access don\u2019t reduce teen pregnancy<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abcarian&#8217;s love affair with abortion and the mother ship of the abortion and sex education home base is well-documented in her own writing. However, in this column her focus on sex ed goes too far in advocating for children all over California to be taught by the abortion profiteer about intimate things their own parents might not choose to teach them at this point in life. Abcarian explains that in Pacific Grove, the issue was that the school district did not provide adequate notice to parents:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>The notice was emailed to parents of Pacific Grove Middle School students on March 27: In five days, outside educators from Planned Parenthood would be on campus, teaching sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders about sex.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>The notice did not sit well with a mother of two middle school students&#8230;\u201cI really don\u2019t want Planned Parenthood involved in our school,\u201d said the mother, a former home-schooler who described herself as a Christian who opposes abortion. She did not want to be named because, as she put it, \u201cI\u2019m just a normal mom with a normal family trying to raise my kids as I see fit. I don\u2019t want to get involved in any drama.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>She contacted the Pacific Justice Institute, a Sacramento-based conservative Christian legal group that fights against what it considers infringements on parents\u2019 religious rights.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Abcarian describes how PJI contacted the school&#8217;s principal, Sean Roach, requesting that the course be canceled, or at least that it be delayed because the school allegedly violated the California Education Code, which required giving parents adequate time to review the class curriculum and opt out if they wish.<\/p>\n<p>But Abcarian is a columnist, which means she&#8217;s there to offer her take on situations, and of course, her take is pro-Planned Parenthood. So her choice of language is going to reflect that, such as when she<a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/local\/abcarian\/la-me-abcarian-sex-ed-20190412-story.html\"> says<\/a>, &#8220;The letter then went a step further, attacking Planned Parenthood.&#8221; The implication is that the Pacific Justice Institute went too far in pointing out that Planned Parenthood is a polarizing organization. It is here where Abcarian inserts her feelings of &#8220;love&#8221; for the abortion giant, apparently feeling the need to defend it. At least her next <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/local\/abcarian\/la-me-abcarian-sex-ed-20190412-story.html\">comments<\/a> have some objective validity: &#8220;Still, I don\u2019t think anyone disagrees that parents should be informed about their children\u2019s education, particularly on sensitive topics like sex.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/uk-study-teen-pregnancy-rate-declined-after-sex-education-spending-cuts\/\">UK study: Teen pregnancy rate declined after sex education spending cuts<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But Abcarian&#8217;s love for Planned Parenthood should be reevaluated, because the abortion corporation doesn&#8217;t show a history of caring about parents&#8217; opinions on what their children learn in sex ed classes; it makes it easier to get customers for its businesses that way.\u00a0Abcarian&#8217;s love for the abortion provider causes her to miss the facts. Her story continues, pointing out:<\/p>\n<div>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Lauren Walters, a regional program manager for Planned Parenthood Mar Monte, oversees the sex-ed classes at Pacific Grove. She does not get defensive when challenged. \u201cI think it\u2019s natural for parents to be concerned about what their kids are learning in school,\u201d she said.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Any school can ask her to give parents a preview of what their children will be taught, although Pacific Grove did not. \u201cVery few schools take us up on it,\u201d she said, \u201cand when they do, we find that not many parents come out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>I shared with her one concern of the middle school mom in Pacific Grove, who told me she objected to having Planned Parenthood on campus because, as the mom put it, \u201cthey will tell your children they are allowed to leave school without your permission to get an abortion.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>That sounded a little like right-wing paranoia to me. Except she\u2019s partially right: While California teenagers need permission to leave campus, they <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teensource.org\/sites\/default\/files\/your-health-your-rights.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">do not need their parents\u2019 approval for birth control<\/a>, abortions or prenatal care. (They don\u2019t need permission to get sexually transmitted diseases or pregnant, either, both of which are far more likely to happen in the absence of sex ed.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cWe give comprehensive, medically accurate information, and part of that is pregnancy options,\u201d Walters told me. \u201cIf someone has a positive test, there are three options: carrying on with pregnancy, adoption or abortion.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The truth is, Planned Parenthood Mar Monte will tell teens a lot of things, and all without parents there. In fact, it has a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthood.org\/planned-parenthood-mar-monte\/patient-resources\/information-for-teens\">whole page dedicated to teenagers<\/a>. It even has live chat for myriad questions about almost everything &#8212; with one notable exception: adoption.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/?attachment_id=200794\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-200794\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-200794\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM-700x405.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM-700x405.png 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM-768x444.png 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM-500x289.png 500w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-21-at-2.05.27-PM.png 1158w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course, Abcarian celebrated the indictments of The Center for Medical Progress staffers, so she wouldn&#8217;t have also noted that this particular Planned Parenthood was one of the primary offices that was found to be using aborted fetal parts as products for sale to fetal parts procurement agencies, such as StemExpress, so it&#8217;s no wonder adoption wouldn&#8217;t be a chat option or appear prominently on the page for teens.<\/p>\n<p>And while at the time of the investigations in CA, the state Attorney General (now Senator and presidential candidate) Kamala Harris, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sacbee.com\/news\/politics-government\/capitol-alert\/article28666714.html\">refused to investigate Planned Parenthood, but instead investigated The Center for Medical Progress<\/a>, the fact remains, as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.centerformedicalprogress.org\/2017\/11\/planned-parenthood-had-no-shipping-costs-for-fetal-parts-sales\/\">CMP pointed out then<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>[T]he <a href=\"https:\/\/energycommerce.house.gov\/subcommittee\/select-investigative-panel-114\/\">House Select Investigative Panel<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grassley.senate.gov\/news\/news-releases\/grassley-refers-planned-parenthood-fetal-tissue-procurement-organizations-fbi\">Senate Judiciary Committee<\/a> both referred StemExpress, along with its business partners <strong>Planned Parenthood Mar Monte<\/strong>, Planned Parenthood Northern California, and Planned Parenthood Federation of America, to the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice for further investigation and criminal prosecution.
