Planned Parenthood Incentivizes Teens to Join Its Sex Ed Summer Camp

Parents are horrified by Planned Parenthood's campaign to entice Minnesota teens to enroll in its "sex ed summer camp" by providing payments ranging from $100 to $150 in gift cards to some as young as 13.

Among those unhappy is Karin, a home educator and mother of six from Minnesota. She stated on "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Sunday that her top three concerns about the program are related to predatory behaviors, "grooming" young people to engage in sexual activity, and graphic content covered at the camp, according to Fox News.

The S'MORE Camp

The three-week S'MORE (science-based, medically accurate, open-minded, responsible (sex) education) camp is offered free of charge to young teens between the ages of 13 and 15 who have finished eighth grade but have not yet started high school, according to Planned Parenthood North Central States, the camp's organizer.

Additionally, participants must secure parental approval and be prepared to participate for the whole program duration.

Pete Hegseth of Fox News claims that one camp in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area was canceled due to low registration, but teenagers in Mankato between the ages of 15 and 18 can still sign up for a condensed program run later this month.

According to a tweet from Planned Parenthood Minnesota Advocates marketing the program, registrants receive a free lunch and a $150 gift card upon successful completion of the course.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 10: Planned Parenthood of Los Angeles CEO Sue Dunlap speaks as Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass looks on, about a federal judge’s ruling to rescind FDA approval of the abortion pill Mifepristone at a news conference at Planned Parenthood Los Angeles on April 10, 2023 in Los Angeles, California. Dunlap and Los Angeles officials said the decision has no immediate impact on abortion and reproductive healthcare in Los Angeles County.

Karin stated that she thinks it is "critical" for parents to be informed of the information discovered in the camp, including what she refers to as "explicit instruction" on how to engage in oral, anal, and vaginal intercourse.

Planned Parenthood in the US

Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization that provides reproductive health care services, including birth control, abortion, and cancer screenings, to millions of people in the United States. It is the largest provider of reproductive health care in the country, and its services are essential for many people, especially low-income women and people of color.

Today, Planned Parenthood operates more than 600 health centers across the country. It provides a wide range of services.

It also advocates for reproductive rights and access to affordable health care. It ensures that all people, regardless of their income or insurance status, have access to the necessary health care.

Planned Parenthood is a controversial organization. Some people believe that it provides essential health care services, while others believe that it promotes abortion and is, therefore, morally wrong. However, Planned Parenthood remains a vital resource for millions of people in the United States, and it is committed to providing high-quality, affordable health care to all.

In recent years, Planned Parenthood has been the target of numerous attacks from anti-abortion activists. These activists have tried to defund Planned Parenthood, pass laws making it more difficult for women to access abortion, and even close down Planned Parenthood clinics.

Despite these attacks, Planned Parenthood has continued to provide essential healthcare services to millions of people. It is a strong and resilient organization, and it is committed to ensuring that all people have access to the health care they need.
