The GOP really loves their women

I do not think "free stuff" is, per se, evil and leads to dependence. Could be, but not in this case.
The other thing is, it's not how government regards women. It's more about society and what's best for it. Teen pregnancies are not "good" for a society, and especially young people could use some information and also, yes, some support - for me that's really all there is to it. PP helps with that. Whatever else you see in that, I do not. 

Finally, a part of me just doesn't believe you. You want PP gone because of conservatice standpoints, say because of abortions. And not because you're a fighter of individual responsibility or of women's independence (for that's something you would willingly want to deny women who want to terminate pregnancy). And fair enough, but I'd say don't pretend. 

Obviously I am in the minority in this forum, but I just have a issue with enabling folks to do as they please, instead of putting the onus on them to be responsible for their own actions.

I have no issue with Planned Parenthood; however, I'm not against it being totally privately funded or the funds directed toward education; but assume what you will.
