OH gee! The courts actually ruled in favor of life? oh wow!

All praise to God!!!

I hope this girl is somewhere safe. Perhaps she should go to a home for unwed mothers (where she can get medical care, go to school and have the support of other young women and staff).

May God Bless and protect this girl, and show the light to her un-compassionate, un-Christian family.

That’s fantastic but .... (there is always a “but”) The same legal reasoning would permit her to have an abortion even if the parents tried to stop her.

[Huskrrrr]

Finally....some good news today.

Where are the "pro-Choicers"? This poor girl's rights are being violated, and she is not being given a choice.

Good for her and her friends, standing up for the right to choose life.

The unborn child’s teenage father also reportedly do not want the baby killed and have supported the girl’s decision to keep the child.

Good. So many are so quick to presumptively demonize the father of the baby when conception is premarital.

the young woman’s friends contacted a local pregnancy center which, through various channels, was put in contact with Texas Center for Defense of Life.

What good friends she has. Strange to think how her friends, in this case, were a better influence on her than family. How the heck did that come to be?

This also points out the two-way influence between law and culture. The prolife movement has created an environment where individuals in bad situations can find a way out, even if it means going against family. That is a victory, because culture leads law, and the culture of life is beginning to prevail, which it must, if good law is to follow.
