At the moment a girl under-16 can have an abortion without mum or dad's permission. But today MPs may vote to change that. Do parents have a right to know? How would the loss of confidentiality affect pregnant, frightened teenagers? (This weeks panel: Anne Diamond & Ed Vaizey with special guest: Justin Hawkins)

  • No they shouldn't

    I never told my mum when i had one. It was my decision and i needed to deal with it without anyone else.

  • That's such a huge breech of privacy - I find that disgusting. It's a massive step backwards. How could you possibly go to a doctor if you thought your parents would find out? My business is my business - doctors should encourage me to tell someone who can help me through the process but ultimately why should I have my right to confidental treatment denied?

  • they bitch about teens getting abortions they bitch about teens having babies to get a council flat, those snobs cant have it both ways.

  • @BabyBirdx What the hell does any random celebrity know about ANYTHING raised on this show?

  • i think they should know. those can be pretty dangerous operations besides. in the states, a girl as young as 13 can be flown out of state to get an abortion, without telling her parents. i mean what if she died on the operating table? the clinics just want your money. i think its sick.

  • Not informing parents makes it easier for paedophiles and rapists to get away with their crimes.

    I agree with the lady in the blue jacket.
