Judge orders 13 year old to murder her child.
Judge sentences girl to abort baby13 year old had to abort because of a judge rulingAlan Zammit17 February 2007An Italian judge ordered a 13 year old girl from Torino to abort her unborn child because her parents were opposed to the baby.
Italian legislation states that a minor is not allowed to decide whether to abort or not and the 'decision' falls entirely on the guardians or parents.
The shocking story was brought into light by Italian newspaper La Stampa in which the paper reports that the girl didn't want to abort the baby but had to after the ruling. She then had to receive treatment after telling her parents she was going to attempt a suicide.
The girl got pregnant by her 15 year old boyfriend but despite this she still wanted to keep the baby.

However her parents were very angry and demanded an abortion. After the abortion the girl went into a frenzy and threatened she was going to kill herself.
"The unborn baby is still a life and I defend life whatever the situation." Severino Poletto, Archbishop of Torino told the paper.
"Society must take of this child. I certainly oppose abortions but this case allows us to reflect on the situation. We have to take a step back and ask ourselves how this could have happened to a 13 year old girl." he added.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and proffer a guess that it happened as a result of she and her boyfriend having sex. But that's just me...

Catholics and birth control.... makes Hev angry (*turns green*).

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

First of all I'm for abortions but this is a little crazy. To make another abort by ruling of a judge seems more immoral and unbelievable than her aborting on her own free will. It really shouldn't be other people's decision if a FETUS is aborted, not a judge. Also along the same lines a government like the U.S. shouldn't be able to ban abortions, just like they shouldn't be able to ban gay marriges since those certain people are persuing happiness and that is in the constitution "Life, Liberty and pursuit of happiness". Not saying that i support gay people im just saying that it is their right to do so.

Do you think polygamy should be legal also?

How about public nudity, internet gambling and visiting Cuba?

Without the archaic view on birthcontrol the child might not be pregnant in the first place.
