  1. Planned Parenthood wants to control children\u2019s minds<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Teach children sexual activity is normal, even for very young children (5\u201310 years old).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Evidence \/ Example:<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • IPPF lesson guides in Asia and Africa include\u00a0instructions on sexual behavior<\/strong>, explaining sexual pleasure in ways accessible to children as young as 8\u201310.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Your body belongs to you\u201d campaigns in IPPF youth programsencourage children to seek advice from teachers or peers instead of parents<\/strong>, framing parental guidance as restrictive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. They promote sexual behavior, not health<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Encourage masturbation, casual sex, and sexual experimentation; question traditional family values and gender norms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Evidence \/ Example:<\/strong>\n
              \n
            • IPPF\u2019sComprehensive Sexuality Education<\/em>\u00a0manuals openly describe\u00a0sexual pleasure, masturbation, and exploration as healthy\u201d behaviors<\/strong>\u00a0for children and adolescents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Planned Parenthood U.S. lesson plans for teens encouragerole-playing sexual negotiation scenarios<\/strong>\u00a0and teach about\u00a0same-sex relationships, LGBTQ+ identities, and gender fluidity<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              1. They profit from what they teach<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                • Normalize sexual activity to increase demand for contraception, abortion, and counseling services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Evidence \/ Example:<\/strong>\n
                    \n
                  • Planned Parenthood\u2019s 2020 annual report showsover 1.5 million clients received contraception or abortion-related services in the U.S. alone<\/strong>. CSE is explicitly noted as a pipeline\u201d to future service users.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  • In countries like Kenya and India, IPPF CSE programs are directly linked toclinics providing reproductive health services<\/strong>, showing a\u00a0financial model tied to sexual behavior promotion<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                      \n
                    1. They are pushing a foreign agenda<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                        \n
                      • Funded and directed by foreign governments and international agencies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                      • Evidence \/ Example:<\/strong>\n
                          \n
                        • Funders include:USAID<\/strong>,\u00a0UNFPA<\/strong>,\u00a0Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation<\/strong>, and several\u00a0European government development agencies<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        • Their programs arealigned with global sexual rights agendas<\/strong>, promoting abortion access, LGBTQ+ rights, and removal of parental consent laws, often in direct conflict with local culture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                            \n
                          1. The risk to Sri Lanka is real<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                              \n
                            • CSE destroys parental authority:<\/strong>Children are taught to\u00a0ignore parents<\/strong>\u00a0and consult teachers, counselors, or peer educators aligned with Planned Parenthood\/IPPF ideology<\/strong>.\n
                                \n
                              • Example:<\/strong>In IPPF workshops in Cambodia, children were encouraged to\u00a0seek confidential reproductive advice without parental knowledge<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                              • CSE confuses children about sex, gender, and morality<\/strong>:<\/strong>Lessons blur boundaries, redefine gender identity, and present sexual activity as a right.\u201d\n
                                  \n
                                • Example:<\/strong>IPPF manuals define\u00a0gender as fluid and sexual orientation as a spectrum<\/strong>, encouraging children to question traditional male\/female roles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                                • CSE conflicts with Sri Lanka\u2019s culture, religion, and laws<\/strong>:<\/strong>Contradicts Buddhist, Hindu, Christian, and Islamic teachings and child protection principles.\n
                                    \n
                                  • Example:<\/strong>Programs in South Asia have promoted\u00a0abortion access for minors without parental notification<\/strong>, which conflicts with local family and religious values.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                    Bottom line<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    Planned Parenthood and IPPF are not educating our children<\/strong>. They are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      \n
                                    • Training children toaccept sexual experimentation from a young age<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                                    • Making themdependent on contraceptives, counseling, and abortion services<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                                    • Encouraging them toreject Sri Lankan family, religion, and culture<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                                      CSE is a Trojan horse for foreign agendas \u2014 it is a direct threat to Sri Lankan children, families, society AND NATIONAL SECURITY.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
