Hello!

When I was 18, I worked at Planned Parenthood for a summer. From what I can remember, keeping in mind this was 6 years ago, is that the United Way &quot;overseers&quot; so to speak various non-profit organizations, PP being one of them. In doing so, they more or less give their title to such credited organizations. I honestly do not know how to really explain this and I am sorry I am doing such a terrible job, but to once more reiterate what I am babbling about, picture jewels as United Way and the various types of them as Planned Parenthood. They are not directlyaffiliated but they do indeed have a relationship.

Man, sorry about the babble! Just got home from a long day of work in the OR. My brain is absolute jello!

You have your opinion, I have mine. I won't change yours, you won't change mine. Now we can all be happy!

I just remember hearing something about Planned Parenthood giving out free condoms and someone trying to sue them for some crazy reason... I think planning the day that I get stuck with THAT sort of responsibility is like thinking of the day that Single Scarpozzi becomes Non-single Scarpozzi. 3 people have already tried to make that change and I'm not going to let it happen just yet! If they changed their cause and name to &quot;Planned Singlehood&quot; I'd be all about that!

Maybe, but in my mind... I want to provide for those that I'm responsible for. It's my personal belief. I don't bug out on potential family. ;)

That's the way it should be. Unfortunately... others won't take responsibility for their actions......
