All of it is interesting indeed in light of the US Supreme Court's recent decision that the death penalty can't be imposed on someone under 18 because a 17-year-old is too young to understand the implications of his actions when he kills someone. Too young and immature to understand the implications of killing someone but not to young and immature to understand the risks of having sex or to decide what to do about the unwanted pregnancy that results?

I'm kinda confused. I don't think you have to be mature to have sex. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to stick a penis in a vagina. But there is a certain maturity that is needed to deal with the consequences. I'm pretttty sure that this girl knew that babies come from sex. Just like kids know when they pull triggers that people will seriously, if not fatally, injured.
