My problem with parental notification laws is the fear that they could lead to more “notification”? and “consent”? laws being passed, ( such as needing the husband’s or boyfriend’s consent first) in an attempt to squash a woman’s right to choose completely, and deny her right to privacy. As if pregnant and scared teenage girls don’t have it hard enough as it is. They’ll be shamed by society whether they continue the pregnancy to full term, or abort anyway. It’s the wonderful Catch 22 all women must endure in this country when it comes to our reproductive health and choices.
I’d never shame her either way, but I sure wish he had a choice as to whether to pay for HER choice.
