So...Big Brother says this boy can get drugs and overdose on what was given out for free at school, my teenage daughter can get an abortion without telling me, but she can't take an aspirin I provide for her to take at her school without going through Zero Tolerance Reeducation?

From this point forward you will never refer to them as daughters, but as units as stipulated by THE GOVERNMENT.

Female units are to be classified into three categories:

1. Breeders
2. Non-breeders: but still productive for society.
3. Pikers: older, non-breeders no longer able to produce anything for the common good of society. To be eliminated via numerous means so category 2 units can take their place.

There will be at a later date be sub-categories added as needed.
