10. No problem with this decision

Edited on Thu Jan-13-05 09:08 PM by Southern Dem 2005

The fact that a majority voted for it is compelling but not conclusive. Majority support doesn't always make something right (an example being Jim Crow laws). However, I have no problem with a law requiring a teen to notify a parent before they obtain an abortion. Have any of you who don't like this law ever had an abortion as a teen? I'm not sure that is a decision a teenager is equipped to make on their own.
