No

In some instances, a parent or family member is responsible for the pregnancy. Victims of incest should not need parental permission to terminate such a pregnancy.

No

Yeah, this is one of the many examples that are cited when giving reasons against this.

Also, some parents really blow their top when told that their little girl is pregnant. My dad was telling me that he read a while back about a girl who's father beat her nearly to death after she told him that she was pregnant.

It depends on the circumstances. No issue is black and white. There are grey areas that require deep contemplation, assessment and fair action.

So, she didn't need an abortion after that?

lol. Probably not.

true, I didnt think about this but there should be a way to find out...I dont know how...& maybe another family member could be contacted like a grandparent or aunt even a friend of the family...a 13, 14, 15 year old child shouldnt go through it alone...and certainly some counseling should be due afterwards.

3 weeks ago, a 13 year old girl, all alone, gave birth to a boy, didn' t know which way to turn with her baby and dropped him from the thirteenth floor.

That is very disturbing and horrible. 🙁

I would vote yes.

All those months, she concealed her pregnancy from everyone and tried to hide her belly in every possible way. She laughed away questions about the increase of her weight.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the situation, but how would forcing a legal obligation on a minor to disclose to parents that they choose to have an abortion prevent something like this from occuring?

Though I can understand some of the abortion debate, I think some trusted relative should be informed that the girl chooses...Abortions can be dangerous...people can even die of complications...

that is such a horrific story, i feel so sorry for people who think thats the only way to fix somethings is simply to get rid of them....
see now im a mother and i would never have an abortion its something i personally could never bring myself to do but if i thought that i just could not have a baby at all and there was no other way to get around it then yes i properly would........
and for people who think having a baby at a young such a young age is so bad think back into the 1800's women were married off and starting family with their much older husbands at as young of an age as 14

I say no, because if a child was too scared to tell their parents, they just might have their boyfriend bicycle-kick them in the stomach instead.

Yes that is possible, and yes it does work.

Which brings me to my little story:

Last year, in foods, I was sitting around three girls. One of them was talking about how she was pregnent and how she was too afraid to tell her parents. So she was talking about getting an aborition. But one of her friends decides to tell her "No, no, no need for an abortion, just get your boyfriend to bicycle-kick you in the stomach". After that I started laughing, because I made the assumption that this was a joke. But after awhile, I noticed that none of them were laughing along with the girl's proposal.

No, Like it has been said, People my age will do crazy shit to avoid parental approval. Not a good measure by any means...

I dont even know why Im saying anything...BackFire doesnt need me to stand up for him...thats just my 2 cents on this and Im a lady who wont be following you when you leave.

No, but if the girl is under the age of 16 or has injuries, the police should be informed, as they would be by any doctor.
