Common Sense at Work

I have to applaud the Provincetown School Committee on this one. Rather than make its free condom distribution program available to every student at the school, regardless of age, with no parental approval needed, they will now re-word the policy so that only students fifth grade and up can ask the school nurse for a free condom.

It makes sense to me -- if you can't ride your bike without training wheels, you shouldn't be asking for birth control. I suggest the committee check out local amusement parks to see if they have any old signs like this one to help make the policy clearer.

Then I suggest they make those drinks a post-meeting ritual instead...
