I don't think bc pills have any place in a middle school. Birth control pills only work if they're taken every day, at the same time every day. I don't think 12-14 year olds have the discipline to monitor their pill-popping and their bodies that closely. I just don't. They think they do, but they don't.

If some schools are this desperate, they need to up the sex ed and make condoms available. Besides, pregnancy is only one of the hazards with (pre)teen sex, and one could argue it is one of the lesser concerns.
