Yeah, so, why are you coming down so hard on women under 18? You think
they're all incapable and stupid?

You keep spinning it as simply "under 18", let's get the cards on the
table, let's set a number, like 13. OK, you say a 13 yo girl should be
able to get this medical proceedure without her parents permission or
knowledge, how about field trips? Should the school have to tell me
when they are taking my 13 yo out of town? How about plastic surgery,
dating, cerfews, should she be able to get in a car with her friends
dad and take off to New York on a weekend without her parents
permission? I mean, Harry, where do you draw the line, what age do
parents lose all rights to help their kids make decisions? 18, 13,
10??? Or is is just this one decision, abortion you want to apply this
to as it suits your personal agenda of not wanting anyone to be
accountable for anything?


Some christians not only don't quite live properly,
but also don't expect anyone else to either.

The more they publicly profess their "Christianity" and push it on
others, the less likely they are to be following the teachings of their
Savior.





Still, all of this is just fodder to avoid answering the real
question. Do you support a law that allows non related adults to take
someone else's daughter for an abortion without the parents knowledge
or concent?

Sure, if those parents are going to interfere in anyway with the desire
of the "daughter" to obtain an abortion.



JPS and you and the others are quick to slam me for
wanting to preserve only parental rights in the abortion issue, based
on one line taken out of context from a post I made over a year ago,


The "parental units" aren't pregnant here, the daughter is. The decision
should be between the young lady and her doctor.


so how do you feel about this issue yourself, c'mon Harry, JPS, answer
the question, show me some more of how "tolerant" you are?

I've already stated my opinion. If a young lady or woman wants to
terminate her pregnancy in a medically acceptable way, that's her business.
