About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorAt Planned Parenthood We Envision A Future...
in which all adults and adolescents are in charge of their reproductive lives
....in which children are born to parents who have many life options, and who choose parenthood consciously, accepting the responsibilities that go with it
....in which pregnancy is intentional, reflecting thought and care about producing new life
....in which sexual relationships are by mutual wish, fulfilling their potential for reciprocal affection, respect, and trust
....in which society itself, through its policies in the work place, schools, social organizations and structures, demonstrates the value it places on family life and children's futures.
The Power of our Beliefs
We believe in trusting individuals and providing them with the information they need to make well informed decisions about sexuality, family planning and childbearing.
We believe in the right to sexual and reproductive self-determination that is non-coercive, non-exploitive, and responsible.
We believe that children flourish best in families and communities where they are nurtured, honored, and loved.
We believe in passion - for change, for justice, for easing the plight of others, for caring, for living our convictions, and for confronting inhumane acts.
We believe in action - to make things happen and to improve people's lives and circumstances.
We believe in inclusion and diversity - and the power and knowledge they confer.
We believe in acting courageously, especially as allies with those who have little or no voice and little or no power.
We Believe.

By 2008 Wikipedia Could be my Baby's Daddy

I love Wikipedia.  I've said it before; if Wikipedia would coalesce into a sentient being, I'd date it.  And I'd take it to bar trivia nights.  But that's neither here nor there.  ...
