7. Teens will just start transporting themselves, then
The bill's advocates evoke the image of a girl being impregnated by an abusive older man who then drives them to an out-of-state abortion clinic so the girl's parents and the authorities won't find out about a relationship that might have been illegal because of age differences.

Therefore, the girl should have the baby? And what if "the abusive older man" is a relative?

I could be in favor of parental notification if there was some way to ensure that they didn't have the right to stop--or--not stop--the abortion from taking place.
