For males - it's a little easier. However, my son and his cousin had a conversation the other day about how they think they'd have a hard time going to college in a red state. I was proud of them for really thinking it through. My son is being recruited at many schools in red states. The schools are progressive enough that he'd feel comfortable there and luckily, as a male, he just has more options than his female classmates.
Most girls and women are capable enough to figure out birth control.
+1 Seriously. I can't get over the number of posters here whose top priority seems to be the availability of abortions.
25% of women will get an abortion in their lifetime. They just don’t talk about it. Especially to you. And sometimes those abortions are life saving. If you were a senior citizen with a 25% chance of having a heart attack, would you willingly love somewhere where they would watch you die of an MI when an effective treatment was easily available.
No on thinks they will need an abortion— until they do (“the only justifiable abortion is my abortion”. So yeah— it’s not just a kid unable to come home for an abortion. It’s a kid with a partial miscarriage, ectopic or one of dozens of other pregnancy complications who isn’t stable enough or doesn’t have time to travel.
Also not interested in a state that values my child so little they would stand back and watch her go septic over a pregnancy complication.
