Quotes to Note

"Comparing the maternal mortality risk of childbirth to that of abortion, when proper weight is given to the increased risk of breast cancer and suicide due to abortion, and the decreased risk of ovarian cancer with full-term pregnancy, abortion is many times more hazardous to the mother in the long run than carrying a child to term."

-- Chris Kahlenborn M.D., "Breast Cancer: Abortion and the Pill"

 
Teens Peddle Yard Signs to Promote Abstinence (8/04) PDF Print E-mail
 How do you draw attention for abstinence in Milwaukee? A group of creative teens had an idea: yard signs! With signs proclaiming the benefits of saving sex for marriage, teens aged 12-18 took to the streets sharing their message door to door, asking residents if they could display the signs in their yards. The teens also handed out brochures and a fact sheet sharing the ten best reasons to wait before having sex. The ambitious teens were associated with the Opportunities Industrialization Center of Greater Milwaukee. Nearly 700 signs are still available for placement. [The Journal Sentinel, 08/21/04; Yard Signs Help Kids Abstain, E-Mail Update, Abstinence Clearinghouse, 8/25/04]
