I'm in total agreement with you.

How would you have handled it? It may be a bit trickier for a woman. I'm confident that if I had entered the clinic no one could have stopped me before I reached my daughter. It's a little harder for the fairer sex.

My husband and I rushed to the abortion clinic where we saw our daughter’s name on the roster and the time she had checked in,” the mother said. She then went into the clinic

First thing, here, my husband would have been with me, not much would have kept him from going into that clinic. So, I would have had support in that way.

and searched a room filled with young women awaiting abortions but did not see her daughter.

Second, I would have kept searching till I found her. Or proved ,through a visual inspection of the clinic, that she was not on the premises. .

She took a seat near the main desk

I would never have taken a seat. I would have kept calling her name and telling her not to do it, but I would have kept looking for her. Anyone who tried to stop me would have placed themselves at cross purposes with me. They made the decision to get into my way, knowing, because I would be telling them that my daughter is only fourteen years old, had been kidnapped and I was filing charges and I better not find her hurt, harmed or bleeding. I imagine that at that point, anything could be picked up to help me clear my path to my daughter. .

and said, “I was told I could not prove my daughter was there so I began calling her name. A medical tech at the clinic told me , ‘It’s your daughter’s rights, it’s her body. You have no rights.’”

I most likely would have bloodied this person. .

After continuing to call out her daughter’s name and telling her “don’t do it,” authorities were called and the mother was arrested.

My point in my statement, is this. Most likely the charges for the arrest would have included assault. I tend to be pretty easy going. I do not tolerate, advocate or appreciate stupid senseless violence. I do however believe that our child is our responsibility. If you threaten my child and my grandchild, and I consider giving a fourteen year old an abortion one of the gravest endangerment, most certainly I will have to be dealt with. Will I come out of it unharmed? Probably not, but that’s not the point. If I can save my daughter and grandchild from this evil, I will do what is necessary. .

Also, please don't think I am criticizing the MOM. I respect her for doing what she did, a great many would have taken her there themselves. We can all only do what we are compelled to do. I just wanted to make it clear the least of what I would have been compelled to do.

;) Got my blood pressure back down.

But, didn't want to leave out the boy and his mother. There would be a reckoning in that corner also. I would make it my mission.

Where there is a will there is a way!

Nothing would have stopped me from reaching my child....short of a gun!
