Condom Moral Dilemma

Hmmm ...

Why, when the parents who have conceived, given birth to, fed, nurtured,
protected, educated and financially supported their DEPENDENT MINOR
children take exception to you subverting their parental choices in secret,
they are acting 'irate?'

It's sad indeed to think that the 'rights' of children who can barely
comprehend the potential long-term gravity of their actions outweigh the
rights of the parents who have struggled and sacrificed for years to raise
them.
