Wrongo, VB.

THe first principle of law must be the support of right order. In the case where such order is in danger of being violated (abortion) and in the case where the other 'right order' (parental authority) is secondary, and IN PARTICULAR the case where such authority violates the first principle of right order (the sanctity of life), intervention is not only warranted but mandated.

I agree, Ninenot. What I was saying is that parents have a right to counsel their children with regard to contraception, sexual issues and abortion. Schools and independent agencies (Planned Parenthood) should not. But I do believe that a child who wants to have a baby should not be prevented from doing so, even by her parents.
