purplezen said:Against. Forces family communication when there is much communication already. Its condescending and an invasion of privacy for both mother and family.
If if the proposition passed, abortions would still continue as organizations would pop up servicing young women who need help getting to court or pleading their case for abortion.
Too many loopholes, too much condescension. The abortion process needs to be rehauled in a different way or if anything outright banned (I am totally against that though), but this parental notification stuff is just plain WEAK.
Its just the dumbest thing I've ever of heard really.
Preventing abortion is great and all that, but the problem is that these abortions are wanted in the first place. I don't know what the cure is for these wanted abortions, maybe better education about contraception, religious beliefs or greater protection for women who are bulled by older men or sexual predators.[/QUOTE]
Jeez. What was on when I wrote this crap?

The only people against parental notification are the Pro-Abortion fanatics that are driving the Democratic Party and the vile Pro-Abortion agenda that has murdered over 40 million unborn human beings in America alone. These individuals have given undying support to a Pro-Abortion political agenda that can be compared to crimes against humanity.
They must be stopped.
They will be stopped.

A minor has to have parental consent to enlist,a minor has to have parental consent to get married a minor has to have parental consent for everything practically everything.Abortion should be no different.
righteousbabe said:A minor doesn't need parental consent to give birth. If her parents are against her carrying the pregnancy to term should they be able to decide that she should terminate it?
Then i guess minors do not need parental consent to be striped search for drugs,join the military to get married,questioned by the police and so on.righteousbabe said:A minor doesn't need parental consent to give birth.

It IS only a medical procedure. That prolifers have decided to assign emotional issues to it, that's their problem.purplezen said:If abortion were only a medical procedure, then people wouldn't be making such a big stink about it.

So let me see if I have this right............righteousbabe said:This is exactly my point. The law has decided that a minor DOES need parental consent for these things, but NOT to give birth and keep a baby. (Even though these things are both medical and very serious) Because they are also very personal decisions and the law has decided that parents are not in a position to decide these things for their children. I think that it should be the same with abortion.

Oh, so unless the parents allow it, she should be forced to give up her own baby. yes, the horros of the good old days when children were propertyrighteousbabe said:This is exactly my point.

BUT you're forgetting that more often than not, minors do not have the ability to make healthy choices. They are still kids with kid-like mentalities. (I know there are exceptions)righteousbabe said:I don't think that parental notification for a minor to get an abortion should be requiered, no. For the reasons that I already stated. I know that minors are protected by some of the minor laws, but not like this.
Those things that you listed are for when a minor needs protection from an outside threat, not protection from making their own choices about their own bodies. Thats why a minor doesn't need parental consent to
1)keep a pregnancy to term
2) keep and raise a child
3) have an abortion
4)get birth control.

Are we supposed to just let them choose to do whatever they want?
