Plan B talk

There has recently been some talk about the controversial subject of teenagers having easy access to a birth control pill "plan B", which is a pill that can be taken three days after intercourse that prevents pregnancy.

I don't think that it wold be a very good idea for the pill to be sold over the counter, my reason is because  I think that parents should know if their teens are having sex or taking birth control pills, and this would make it so that kids don't even have to tell their parents because they don't need permission to buy the pill. I feel that any time there is something that can send the wrong message about teen sex, is a bad idea. This can make teens think that it is okay to have sex just as long as they take this pill the morning after. Another reason is because even though the pill prevents pregnancy it does not prevent STD's, There could also be health risk that some teenagers could be going through and their parents wouldn't even know about it.
