Planned Parenthood Videos

For my multimedia source I chose to watch two videos, both having to do with planned parenthood. If you don’t already know, Planned Parenthood provides reproductive health maternal and child health services. Although Planned Parenthood has helped many people, there’s been a few cases were they’ve been under investigation for multiple things, including: deceptive information and ignoring a sexual abuse case; both are the subjects of the videos I chose to watch.

In the first video, which takes place at a Kentucky abortion clinic, an undercover investigator was to say she was 14 and tell them her boyfriend was 31. The staff member who was helping the investigator ignored the signs of sexual abuse and also gave misleading abortion counseling.
In my opinion, it’s unbelievable that people can just let things like this go ignored. You could tell that when she talked about her boyfriend she seems afraid.



The second video shows another investigation on Planned Parenthood proving they manipulate people during counseling sessions. I really disagree with this. The people caught doing this should be fired and not be put in jail. This seems so wrong to me. An abortion is a huge decision and misleading information could really have a big impact on someone’s decision.
