I'm completely speculating here, but I was once a teenage girl and can't imagine being in that situation and telling my mom or da. I knew they wouldn't hate me, kick me out, or force me to have or not have an abortion or adoption. If this is her's mother response, I'd imagine I'd talk to the school nurse as well instead of my mom.
Completely hyperbolic, but there hasn't been an outraged father mentioned, what if the girl was sexually assaulted by her mother's boyfriend or a step-father? Even if that's not the case there is so much shame and other emotional issues I can't imagine what she was going through if she had been sexually assaulted by a stranger or someone she knows.
As for leaving the school I could ahve walked out at lunch or the passing period with no question as we had many students who took classes not offered at our site at other high schools or the community college. My parents never had to sign me out and a note was just for the teachers who would have done an unexcused absence or were sticklers.
Did they really call her a cab? Don't the majority of teenagers have a cell phone, so maybe they provided a phone numer to XYZ cab company. I'm more concerned that she had a medical procedure and that no one went with her. I can only hope that detail wasn't mentioned and she did have someone who kept an eye on her afterwards since it is an outpatient medical procedure and even with a local there could be some bleeding issues.
