I made the announcement over at Kizz’ blog that I would be adding to the discussion on reproductive rights today, but I just haven’t had the chance to finish the post. It doesn’t help that today was a long day at work for me, and that I’m fighting a stuffy head (thanks to the several of my students and children for giving me your runny noses!)
I’ll try to work more on it tonight, and post it tomorrow.
In the meantime, I’d like to point you over to the Community School blog for an article Wifeness found. It discusses the question of whether educators be educated about how to educate. While not strictly apropros to starting a school, I think the article provides some interesting fodder for discussion about student learning as well as training people who are not first and foremost educators. I’ll elaborate on this more in the other space later.
I’m going to bed to lay on my side in the hopes the snot rolls down enough for me to breathe through at least one nostril. Gooooo, gravity!

So, I went back and read your original post pertaining to Kizz post on the Utah bill...still trying to wrap my brain around it. I'll say again: I'm all for abortion if it is MEDICALLY NECESSARY. I am NOT for it when it's used in place of birth control. Therefore, the right to having an abortion should still be an option. Having read Kizz's original post, and the article you found, I'm having a hard time with the thought of trusting my doctor to help make the right decision. And,it's obvious the courts don't make the right decisions...see the mom that had a cesarean and both she and the 25 week fetus died anyway. It's a confusing subject, no doubt.
I also think there should be a lot of thought involved before someone gets pregnant or decides to have completely unprotected sex. Mind you, my pregnancy was a surprise, because one never knows if one can get pregnant until circumstances present themselves. And, yes, when I found out I was pregnant, I went through a 24 hour thing of debating "can I do this?? Should I get rid of it??" and then I caught myself. I couldn't terminate just because both of us used nothing...while I'm not always appreciative of having a teenager around, I do love her very much and don't know what I'd do without her...except maybe be not so frustrated on a regular basis...
