A controversial campaign to promote safer sex is raising eyebrows by offering free condoms to children as young as 11 years old.
The campaign, launched by the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, is called Take Control, and offers information about a variety of sexual health topics including sexually transmitted disease prevention and pregnancy. The free condoms, which can be mail ordered, feature detailed information and graphic illustrations that instruct users on how to properly use them.
"Playing it safe just got easier," the Take Control campaign said on its website. "If you live in Philadelphia and are between the ages of 11 and 19 you can now have condoms mailed directly to you for FREE. Maybe it's difficult for you to stop by one of our sites to pick up condoms. Or maybe you're just shy or feeling weird about picking up condoms."

The video is supposed to be pretty graphic. I haven't seen it, nor do I want to. But there is a far bigger danger here than 11 year olds getting AIDs.
IMHO the City of Phila. is encouraging children to surf the internet without parental permission and essentially lie to their parents. WTF?
