[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am amazed at how shortsighted so many posters on here are. these laws exist for a reason. Just because your family doesn't think it needs them doesn't mean they are bad laws. [/quote]

If a 13 yr old had an abortion, that child needs an adult to supervise the recovery.  There can be complications from an abortion. I think the parent or guardian would need to know so they know what the *child* needs.  Let's face it, a 13 yr old is still a child.

I remember my mom had a D&C.  She came home with some papers that had instructions on how to recover.  My dad had to show the papers to me because of his limited English (I was a teenager at the time).  You think a 13 yr old would follow the instructions and would be able to take care of herself afterwards?  This is crazy.

Even some 20 year olds can't. As an RA, I called an ambulance for one of my residents passed out in the bathroom after an abortion over a long holiday weekend. If I had made my last rounds 15 minutes earlier I might have missed her and she could have lain there all night long. I shudder to think of a 13 year old secretly having an abortion and lying in her bed all night long bleeding excessively.[/quote]
