Most teenage girls are mature enough to make their own decisions about an abortion. Girls need their parents protection and counsel during this time. The majority of teenagers already talk to their parents before having an abortion, so this bill is unnecessary. If the majority already talks to their parents, then this bill should be no problem for them. All teenagers deserve their parents involvement and protection.
All parents deserve to be informed about their daughter s abortion decision.
