Planned Parenthood Wants Access to Your Children-Through Their
Phones



You've probably already heard that Planned Parenthood's
COVID-19 plan has been to ask for donations of masks and gloves, push
surgical abortion, and defy state orders to halt nonessential
procedures. But what hasn't gotten as much attention is how
Planned Parenthood seized upon the quarantine opportunity to ramp up
advertising on "virtual sex education" and "virtual
abortion."

"Virtual sex education" to get around parents

Several years ago, Planned Parenthood launched an interactive app and
a chatbot (called Roo) that can interact with children as young as
thirteen about birth control and sex. They also use these online tools
to engage children on other issues such as gender and relationship
concerns. Parents are asking: should a bot really be the one talking
to our kids about these important issues?

Roo is introduced as "Roo answers all your awkward questions
about sexual health, relationships, growing up, and more. Chatting
with Roo is free and private, so go ahead and ask the things you don't
want to ask out loud." It claims to be the most trusted provider
of sex ed. Bustle (a popular young women's website) claims that
Roo is a way for kids to get around abstinence-focused education. A
child as young as 13 (or who says she is 13) can use the site. But
Planned Parenthood is not just teaching kids the basics about biology,
they are pushing a radical sexual agenda that encourages unhealthy
exploration in secret.

Planned Parenthood is also working with the World Health Organization
to push similar services internationally during the pandemic.
Thankfully, President Trump cut funds for the World Health
Organization over the next several months. However, Planned
Parenthood's radical sexual agenda is not something that the
United States should have ever been funding or should fund in the
future.

"Do it yourself abortions" to get around safety regulations

Planned Parenthood announced in April that it was expanding its
telehealth offerings into all 50 states and is simultaneously pushing
for state and federal governments to ease restrictions on the abortion
pill. They are particularly interested in removing safety protocols
for women taking the abortion pill.

While telehealth can be a vital life-saving tool when used for the
right procedures, abortion is most definitely not one of them. There
are significant risk factors for many women when it comes to chemical
abortions. Receiving abortion pills through the mail is currently
illegal under federal law and is very unwise, medically.

Abortions by pill, or "do it yourself abortions," leave
women to face any complications or even the potential of a failed
abortion on their own, without appropriate medical care. Even if women
do seek out care after a failed abortion, they are being instructed to
tell other medical professionals that they simply had a natural
miscarriage. This hides key information that medical professionals may
need to help a women and her baby after a failed abortion-and
skirts rules for reporting abortion complications in some states.

Planned Parenthood's ramped up virtual agenda is a convenient
way for them to get around even basic regulations at their surgical
facilities-and to exclude a child's parents from some of
the most important conversations of her life.

Planned Parenthood is moving full speed ahead to gain access to
children in their homes through their devices. But, the Family Policy
Alliance team is already working to stop Planned Parenthood's
virtual efforts at both state and federal levels of government and is
using the time during the COVID-19 shutdowns to build helpful guides
to equip parents to handle these challenges and advocate for their
children.

Because our kids deserve better than Planned Parenthood,
