No matter how you feel on abortion.... if the state of Florida does not require parental consent then how can they legally stop this girl from terminating her pregnancy?
This has always bothered me (forcing someone to have a child they do not want). This young girl will have to have some sort of prenatal care, deal with adoption agencies or try to figure out a way to support a baby. She will have huge hospital bills just to deliver the baby. She is thirteen years old, how is she supposed to pay for any of this? She states herself that she is only thirteen and living in a shelter. Where I live you can't even get a job until you are fourteen and then the options are limited. Also, isn't it endangering HER health to have a baby at the age of thirteen. What about the mother's welfare?
And where are all of these concerned persons when the baby is born and this child (she is only 13 after all) is trying to support another human life. It seems evident that she cannot take care of herself....... this is cruel and inhuman to the baby and mother more than an abortion would be, in my humble opinion
