Birth Control-Good/Bad

I have mixed opinions on this topic involving my feelings and my reasoning. When immediately confronted with this topic I thought that having birth control available in a middle school is outrageous. However the next second reason started to set in, and I thought what if these kids cannot be persuaded to stay abstinent? Maybe it is best to be safe. Still personally I feel that kids in middle school should not even consider having sex, and that the best form of birth control is abstinence.
Taking the topic in a different direction, most contraceptives are only for female use, where do boys stand? I wonder if they think it is the girl’s job to be responsible, and they can do whatever they want. Personally I feel that some guys think this issue does not affect them, and I wonder if parents who have boys feel the same. Perhaps they think that because they cannot get pregnant the issue does not affect them, and they do not need to worry. I would like to see more from a guys perspective just to get a different point of view.
