Well I have children and I agree with the doctrine of allowing teens to choose abortion without having parental consent. And the thought does not make me vomit. I recognize the fact that in some families the teen would be forced to take the pregnancy to term, and in many cases the parents might force two kids to marry, or in some cases it could lead to abuse of the child. It's the young lady's choice in my opinion and modern medicine provides a safe and effective solution should that be the child's choice.

Unfortunately, abstinence is a difficult concept to reconcile with a hormone driven child - it rarely works, as I've seen teens who've taken an abstinence vow break it all too often and even have to resort to abortion to resolve a difficult dilemma.
