My two daughters were in GS over three years ago, but when I heard about the connection to PP and looked at the GS materials and realized their subtle and not so subtle slant towards women's empowerment which today includes reproductive rights I had to pull my two girls from the group. Our church allowed a new club to begin called Little Flowers Girls Club. It has been a wonderful alternative to GS and our money goes to support a home schooling Catholic mom who publishes the books and sews the blue sashes, and patches the girls wear. The program materials focuses on strong women saints and fostering Christian virtues. So many wonderful moms and girls are completely in the dark about what the upper GS leadership really stands for and that they fund their international sisterhood WAGGGS which actively works to promote reproductive rights worldwide. I could no longer fund an organization that does that in good conscience. Nor will our family buy the cookies. We haven't bought them in years,

The leaders of GSA know exactly what they are doing and we should pray for their conversion and all those who promote promiscuity and abortions. There are alternatives to the Girl Scouts.

I wonder if there is a cookie business that supports pro-life organizations.

Can't you see that its not the girls who are choosing to support PP. Its the leaders of the organization. Most of the girls and their parents probably don't even know about this. Which is why we've got to get the word out.

Getting them into politics would be okay if the girls wanted to do that, but supporting Planned Parenthood is different. It's not politics we are talking about any more, its eugenics and down right murder.
The girls have a right to know who and what GSA is supporting. According to other GSA parents, they had no idea.

I love Girl Scout cookies, but I haven't bought them in years. Because of Girl Scouts' affiliation with PP and pro-abortion groups and persons, I cannot, in good conscience, support this organization.

Please stop partnering with Planned Parenthood, an organization which makes money off of the killing of human beings.
