i did not know that about abortions as i don’t keep up with the stats.
seems odd to me i thought you had to be an adult (18) for that procedure w/o parental consent.

“I thought you had to be an adult (18) for that procedure w/o parental consent.”

Because the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that states may not give parents an absolute veto over their child’s decision to have an abortion, most state parental involvement requirements include a judicial bypass procedure that allows a minor to receive court approval for an abortion without their parents’ knowledge or consent.

But it can be done. A tattoo? Small potatoes against a human life. I guess the government is trying to take care of the little things better than the big ones.
