It depends what you mean by “teen,” one might think. It’s noticeable that the reporter avoids using a more accurate word, “minors.”
When you reach 18, you make your own decisions. Abortion is still wrong, but that’s another issue.
But are these justices saying that 13 year old girls who have been subjected to statutory rape have a right to an abortion without telling their parents about it? Or stretching the word teen a little, maybe ten or eleven year olds?
I’m afraid so.
good point, what happened to those 5 girls (not women) who were under 15? I assume that alaska has a rape law or some type of consent law, that a girl under 15 can’t consent to any sexual activity, wonder if the planned parenthood or whomever helped those young teens out to an abortion, also reported the “sperm donor” for rape? if they didn’t wouldn’t that make them an accessory after the fact? or guilty of something?
