[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like the consensus is that it’s Missouri that’s the issue.  Yet, people here love Rice and don’t post long missives about how women are treated under Texas laws.  Why not?[/quote]

People do complain about Rice and Texas. Young people like to be in Texas more than Missouri though.[/quote]

Both these states are extremely aggressive with their abortion bans and involving themselves in folk's reproductive business.  There's chatter out here about criminalizing iuds for goodness sake.

Suit yourself but sending your sons and daughters off to college in a state that might criminalize or severely restrict birth control does not seem like the wisest choice.[/quote]

You are overthinking it, and let the kids choose where they want to go to school based on the education they will receive.  I’m pretty far left, but I learned a ton about people and life by spending time in red states during my younger years.[/quote]

I don't disagree that learning about the locality of your college is part of your education.  But I have college students and there is going to be sexual activity.

Pay attention to what is going on.  State restrictions on birth control could obviously be worked around.   Efforts toward criminalization for certain birth control activity is just a hard no.  And what does it say to my daughters that they're being educated in a place that treats them like second-class citizens?[/quote]

Illinois is like 10 minutes away. [/quote]

LOL you think the state bounty hunters in MO are letting your daughter leave ???

Parents are not paying attention to the changing landscapes ie laws in red states. By 2028 say good bye to all women’s rights in those states. You want to risk jail have at it the rest of us will protect our DD , I’m not over blowing this Republicans have bills right now in these states. [/quote]
