Editing Griswold v. Connecticut (section)

===Right to contraception for juveniles at least 14 years of age, 1977===

In ''[[Carey v. Population Services International]]'' (1977) the U.S. Supreme Court held that it was [[unconstitutional]] to prohibit anyone other than a licensed pharmacist to distribute nonprescription contraceptives to persons 16 years of age or over, to prohibit the distribution of nonprescription contraceptives by any adult to minors under 16 years of age, and to prohibit anyone, including licensed pharmacists, to advertise or display contraceptives. The Court also held that the [[Due Process Clause]] of the [[Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution]] does not allow a state to intrude on an individual's decisions on matters of procreation which is protected as [[privacy rights]].<ref>{{ussc|name=Carey v.
