34. Your responsibility
If your child does not tell you about being pregnant, perhaps there
is a good reason. Perhaps it is none of your business what the
child does with their body, especially given that the choice to have
a kid will weigh long on the child after you've seen your "immature"
kid out of the house.

If you have a loving close relationship with your child, this law
will not affect you, as surely you will be in the loop. It is for
people who are NOT involved parents... that they and their children
have the right to disagree.

The fact is, that the whole argument is really just an attempt to
further undermine a woman's choice over her own body. Just speak
plainly that you don't support abortion... and be frank about it.
This veiled pretending to care about children makes me ill. It is
not about kids at all... rather controlling abortion.

It is very republican, this... indeed. The parents have not
to live with the choice... sorta like bush does not live with the
reality of his choice to invade iraq.... a whole generation of
lawmakers is making laws about someone else, when they themselves
do not bear the responsibility..
