Talk:Planned Parenthood

I'm new at creating articles so any help would be great thanks.

Thanks, Kathryn. I'm going to "move" your article to Planned Parenthood with the 2nd P capitalized. --Ed Poor 20:50, 31 March 2007 (EDT)

Thanks. I thought I'd have more time to work on this page but not untill tommorow. So it will be short for now I guess.

"Planned Parenthood vigorously opposes abstinence" -- Their website lists "continuous abstinence" as a form of birth control, with a long discussion of its pros and possible problems. It is in fact the first method listed. http://plannedparenthood.org/birth-control-pregnancy/birth-control/continuous-abstinence.htm

"They profit from abortion" -- They're a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Is it accurate to say they 'profit' from anything at all? Jtl 01:32, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Article is starting out very bias. It is too anti-planned parenting and since it has no sitations I am removing that part of the article and anyone who can help by contributing usefull information that is not bias would be lovely. Thanks :) ~ And also I am unsure how to make citations or whatever so im just adding links as subscripts and hopefully someone can help me out thanks

Can there be some balance in this article? I think I've seen provides maternal and reproductive health-care to women and couples entered and romoved multiple times.

The issue seems to be:

• Is PP only about abortions and contraceptives - i.e., preventing pregnancy and childbirth?
• Or is it a significant provider of pregnancy and childbirth support? --Ed Poor 23:10, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Sorry, I keep trying to make the article but Bananaman keeps erasing it just to say they preform abortions. It's getting annoying and it'd be lovely if someone could ban them or something so I could complete this article to be completely unbias and not lacking any important information.

I'm sorry that you disagree with me Karyn, but Planned Parenthood is clearly in the busines of performing abortions, funding abortions, promoting abortions as birth control, and using abortion as population control. Just because you disagree with me doesn't mean that your views aren't wrong. You can take your liberal agenda to WIkipedia, where they support such 'freedom of speech'. --Bananaman 23:14, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't ban so quickly as that. You two try to work this out, please. Here is the problematic stuff:

Planned Parenthood provides maternal and reproductive health-care to women and couples. They are an international non profit organization that is committed to providing low coast health care. Planned Parenthood offers high-quality health care. [1] They promote abstinence as the only sure way to avoid an unwanted pregnancy, but also provide birth control. [2] Planned Parenthood Federation of America states that all individuals should have the freedom to make reproductive decisions.They believe that the freedom to make reproductive decisions involves the right to privacy, especially in relationships; the right to education and that every individual should be able to make a informed decisions about sexuality and reproduction; and the right to nondiscriminatory access to comprehensive and confidential healthcare. [3]

I'm sure a balanced article can come out of this. Let me know if you need help. I'll check back in a day or two. --Ed Poor 23:18, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
