And if parents would teach their kids about sex and birth control, instead
of having such outrageous puritan hangups about such topics, there wouldn't 
be a need for them to go to Planned Parenthood to learn.

If you're so worried about your children having knowledge, YOU censor them.
Let ME worry about MINE.  People are more concerned about public institutions
(i.e. schools) because they're mandatory.  Planned Parenthood is a resource,
not a requirement.
