LIFE blamed sex-educationists for encouraging young people to engage in ‘protected’ sex. Their voice joins a volley of outrage following recent statistics published by the Government that 10-to-15-year-old girls were having abortions.

LIFE spokesperson Joanne Hill says: “It’s a real tragedy to hear that girls aged just 12 years old are having sex, getting pregnant and having abortions at a time in their life when they should be enjoying the carefree times of childhood.”

She continued: “All right-minded parents will be downright shocked to hear the statistics that 10-to-15-year-old children are having abortions each year, statistics the Government revealed only after pressure from The Sunday Times under the Freedom of Information Act.

“Even more shocking is that parents probably won’t be aware this is happening to their child as school nurses have the power to arrange abortions without their knowledge.” Read more
