I think it already is OTC if you're over 17.
Seems like the morning after pill can have some pretty serious side effects.
Plus, it's not meant to be used as a frequent form of birth control.

Nah, not really.QuotePlus, it's not meant to be used as a frequent form of birth control.
And it never would be. It's $55 per dose.
Sibelius looks like a big ol' dummy right now.

Not her decision. She and the rest of the perverted left have been pushing for the 12 year olds for months. The administration realized the political backlash would be too much.
What would happen if a girl takes this when she's already a few months into her pregnancy?

Absolutely nothing. All it does is suppress ovulation. :nerd:
Can't imagine a large, artificial dose of progesterone or estrogen and progesterone would be a good thing for a pregnant woman.
Dr., is your girlfriend not old enough to buy it from the pharmacist?
Seriously though, this is a calculated move by the Obama administration to shore up any problems it may cause with socially conservative democrats. Purely a political move. Not Sebelius' decision. It would be pretty sickening to see a 12 year old girl buying it anyway.

Seeing a 12 year old girl having a baby would be even more sickening, honestly.

And this is what the retards fail to realize.
I don't think anyone is saying that we should no allow young kids access to Plan B, just that some parental involvement is probably a good idea. Also, whoever is having sex with that 12 yr old needs to be brought to the attention of the authorities.
And that's why keeping them from having kids should be our top priority. At pretty much any cost.

You mentioned it costing $55 per dose. Where is a 12 year old getting $55? If she is already having sex, what will she be willing to do to get that $55?

How do you think she got pregnant in the first place?
If someone wants to take Plan B, they should be allowed to, regardless of age.

I agree, but I think you should be at least whatever the age of consent is in your state.
It is for whoever is having sex with the 12 yr old.
I am pretty sure the world is going to end really soon.
It seems like everyone should be staunchly on the side of 12-year olds not involuntarily having babies. That seems like a good side. :dunno:

If either of my daughters ever needs back-up birth control, I hope I will be among the first to know and I would help them in whatever way I could. But, life is not always as we want it to be, and therefore, it is essential that young people have the access to the information and services they need to ensure their health and safety.
Disappointed in liberals who are angry just to be angry. Frankly the behavior of some is embarrassing. Having plan b controlled is common sense. Using the argument that it will lead to more 12 year olds having babies is intentionally simple. Let's just make no drugs controlled so that kids who have the power to self diagnose can get ritalin, vicodin, and viagra whenever they want.

Uh..........wut? Liberals are furious with Obama. This is a pretty rare event. Furthermore, your "self-diagnosis to get Ritalin, Vicodin, and Viagra" argument is far more intentionally simple than our plan-B argument ... not to mention that it might be the lamest slippery-slope argument I've heard since "if men can marry other men then what why not make it legal for men to marry other kids, or their pets???"
Interesting. When you say abuse, do you mean sexual abuse or abuse of the drug? Because if it's the former, I have to think that a dad who is raping his daughter isn't going to sign off on letting her go to the doctor to get a prescription for this, so it should be over-the-counter. If it's the latter, well, even at $40/dose I don't see that happening.I did mean abuse of a minor.
This is a pretty good excerpt from the column I posted:QuoteIf either of my daughters ever needs back-up birth control, I hope I will be among the first to know and I would help them in whatever way I could. But, life is not always as we want it to be, and therefore, it is essential that young people have the access to the information and services they need to ensure their health and safety.
I know that my argument was a slippery sloped straw man of an argument. I did it intentionally to illustrate how stupid it is to profess that more 12 year olds will carry babies to term if we don't treat plan b like luden's cherry cough drops.
I think it would be good to provide as many reasonable layers of protection that idiots would attempt to pass and ultimately fail at doing so. The KS rules are not very intrusive and allow for a safe method of dispense for a critically important pill.
Plan B, the Pedophiles' best friend. The victims mom will never need know!
