...Parental consent is something children have to contend with across the country, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach as states have differing rules.
Nearly all states require consent from a parent or guardian to administer a Covid-19 vaccine shot to children ages 12 to 15, the group the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention approved for shots this month, according to a recent CNN analysis.
There are exceptions in just five states: In North Carolina, teenagers can receive vaccinations without parental consent; in Tennessee and Alabama, teenagers 14 and older don’t need consent; in Oregon, the age is set at 15; and in Iowa, it’s up to the health care provider to decide.
In all other states, those 12 to 15 are required to have parental approval before receiving the Covid-19 vaccination. For teenagers 16 to 18, though, it’s all over the map.

“It’s an issue of access, as well as consent,” Danielpour said.
Arin Parsa, 13, the founder of the Teens for Vaccines advocacy group, said... that the group has been "in the trenches helping many teens who face vaccine-hesitancy as well as extreme anti-vax views in their families."

No thirteen year old talks like that.
She’s reciting what her puppet masters/handlers are feeding her.
They are using her and it’s child abuse, just like little what’s her name from Sweden.
Not the least bit concerning......

In many ways, Greta Thunberg is a tragedy. I will not trash her, even though she’s 18 now. Her parents took a child suffering from all sorts of things like Asperger’s and ADD and instead of helping her, weaponized and monetized her. And now she’s a human shield, the target of memes, ridicule, and vective while her disgusting parents laugh all the way to the bank.
