Totally disagree. Do you think condoms should only be sold to eighteen year olds and above as well?After thinking about this I don't believe there should be an age restriction at all. A parent forcing a minor to give birth against her will would be guilty of child abuse, imo.
A parent is responsible for the behavior, well being, and guidance/direction of the child. Hence they are in the custody of the parent or guardian....
Forcing a child to have sex, that would be abuse. Deciding for the child to give birth instead of murdering the unborn is not abuse. Just as deciding on other moral and medical issues is not abuse.
18 year old... they can make their personal decisions.. .get emancipated, and they can make their own decisions... but as a minor, no way in hell
I'm pretty sure Political Chic thinks even adults should go before a judge for such decisions. Interesting how we don't want the government to hold our hands on some things, but look to the government to make laws to restrict personal behavior.
If you don't think your child is at an appropriate age, you can teach them to behave otherwise, but why ask the government to impose such restrictions? Where's the harm?
