Condoms are meant to protect you. But instead they’re creating quite the controversy. From being handed out to elementary school students to an anti-rape one being handed out at The World Cup.
Starting with the elementary school debate. A Massachusetts school district is going ahead with plans to hand out condoms to students without their parents consent or even being made aware that their child asked for one.

But this week, Governor Deval Patrick got involved, saying that sex education programs should be “age appropriate” and that “parents ought to be involved”.
