Planned Parenthood: Bot and Paid For

Boy Using Computer

by Tony Perkins: ow many of you want Planned Parenthood answering all of your kids' questions about sex? Thanks to the group's new "chatbot," stopping them just got a lot tougher.

As part of a new initiative, gender-neutral robot "Roo" was launched yesterday to give teenagers another way of bypassing parents on some of life's most important topics. "Since so many kids get health information online," the PR team explains, "the artificial intelligence-powered bot is meant to give fast answers in a judgment-free, anonymous setting in a manner that's comfortable for the audience..." Users, Planned Parenthood explains, can find information on anything from STDs and pregnancy (read: abortion) to masturbation and more.

And unfortunately, we don't have to guess what "more" is. More is the video of men groping men and women making out? "More" is indoctrination on gender identity, homosexuality, sex exploration, and other things too graphic to print. If you think the public-school sex ed is bad now, just wait until Planned Parenthood gets its tentacles around teenagers online. This is the group's work-around for kids who aren't exposed to their "if-it-feels-good-do-it" message in schools. And they say as much. "Initiatives like this one are meant to help Planned Parenthood give [advice] to hard-to-reach audiences like teenagers who don't receive sex education or are receiving abstinence-only education."

"Young people process information in a way that's changing," said new Planned Parenthood President Leana Wen. "We wanted to make sure that Roo, for example, is available on mobile because we know that's how most young people are searching for information." They don't want something that "sounds like their parents," one of the creators explained.

But their parents' tax dollars are almost certainly paying for it! Thanks to Title X and Teen Pregnancy Prevention programs, Planned Parenthood has a stash of cash to implement immoral ideas like this one. And Americans who object are still unwilling investors. They give their hard-earned money to the government, which turns around and gives a portion to Planned Parenthood to undermine the values we teach at home.

We don't have to guess what an organization who calls abortion their "core mission" will tell our young people. The bottom line for Planned Parenthood has always been the bottom line. If they can persuade more teens to have sex, then that's just a down payment on future business. They don't care about the lives they're jeopardizing along the way, even in a country whose STD rates are at record highs.

An organization that cheers abortion, harvests baby body parts, and uses materials most adults can't read without blushing doesn't deserve our taxpayer dollars. And more importantly, doesn't need them -- as its annual report makes abundantly clear. If Planned Parenthood wants to attack our values, let them do it with their own money! Demand that Congress end the forced partnership between taxpayers and Planned Parenthood.
