The Left’s war against personal responsibility
Many of the problems in our society are symptomatic of the rejection of personal responsibility. Because of the importance of personal responsibility or self-government, I find that a much more important issues to address than the symptoms, as serious as the symptoms are. The following letter from Quebec demonstrates our culture’s hostility to personal responsibility. It also reveals that this despicable attitude is the attitude of today’s adults. It’s not a teen problem. The teens exhibit it because their parents are tolerating and embracing this cult of irresponsibility. Today’s youth are the third generation of Canadians who have been at war with the principle of self-government under God. (I won’t embarrass the letter-writer by including her name here.)

Letter: Bring on the abortion debate
As the mother of two young women, the argument I’ve heard most from those teenaged girls and their friends hanging around the house was that birth control pills, at $20 per month, are not affordable for a student. So unless these young women are ready to talk to their mom and ask her to pay for it, it is a lot easier to get an abortion. Maybe we should offer free pills to young girls until they are financially independent?
