A minor child is equally at risk when he/she goes to an emergency room for treatment yet that treatment is delayed while the medical staff try to contact the parents. I still don't see the difference.As Ron said, this is false. No ER will put a life at risk while they wait for the parents. There is also the matter of financial responsibility. Parents should not be held in any way financially responsible for treatment they did not authorize. So should they instead be held financially responsible for the child that the young woman would then have to raise in the absence of an abortion? If you don't want to take responsibility for the mistakes your children will make, don't have children. If the child paid cash from her own source of funds (begging, part time job, etc) I might reconsider my position. In New York, abortion is covered by Medicaid. This should be the case in every state. |
