CONTROL FREAKS - Yes on Prop 4

In California, a minor can't get an aspirin, a tan, or see an R-rated movie without parental consent. She CAN get a surgical abortion without any family notification whatsoever. Vote "Yes" on Proposition 4 this November. Stop the nonsense.

How can I inform the household adult about my "pregnancy" if they are the one who raped me?

[Matt92126]

Not a "household adult", a family member. There has not been a single documented case of a girl EVER suffering abuse because of abortion notification laws, although 22 states currently require parental permission and 10 require parental notification. All Prop 4 does is inform a young girl's family that she's undergoing a medical procedure.

I'm completely against abortion but c'mon

teenagers are just going to end up doing idiotic things to get rid of their babies

girls are going to go to under ground, disgusting, unsanitary places to get abortions if we do this

i understand that voting yes should be the right decision, but either way, they'll make it happen

with parental consent or not

[Matt92126]

Perhaps, but this Proposition wouldn't ban teen abortions. It would just inform a family member of the decision to abort.

[morningtoglory]

Not everyone can tell their parents about on abortion. Many parents would kick their daughters out of the house or do much worse if they found out about a pregnancy. I know their are "safegaurds" for these circumstances but what scared, abused, pregnant 14 year old girl is going to be able to have the courage to go to a judge and tell them they need an abortion but can't tell their parents because they fear abuse?

[Matt92126]

Telling a judge is not necessary under this proposition; neither is telling a parent. Prop. 4 just stipulates that an adult family member be notified - the minor can decide who that family member is. 35 other states have notification laws - there hasn't been a SINGLE allegation of abuse resulting from notification.

Abortion is a major surgical procedure now?

[setustraight]

Um, stepdad? Thats a family member.

And would if your parents refuse to let you get an abortion? Prop 4 is like letting your parents decide what do do with your body.

[setustraight]

U r a good parent, but others are'nt. Unlike you, I care about the minority of abused teens.

[Iamsunshine61178]

As a Parent I agree 100%

I can't believe the HIPOCRACY here in CA!

U cant get a tattoo, ears pierced, or take an Asprin at school, but U can get a "morning after pill" from Planned Parenthood!!?? Or even worse; A surgical abortion!? How would u know how to help your child heal & recover if u have no clue & shes to ashamed to tell u (or being threatened by the one who impregnated her!) This is INSANE. This has NOTHING to do with a womans right to choose. Unless she is LEGALLY AN ADULT WOMAN!!!

great video!! perfectly executed!

[TragedyAnne]

It's funny. I'm for prop 4 but against 8. Alot of people seem to be throwing these into the same catagory even though they're entirely different issues.

[Muraya5]

Unfortunately, we live in 'progressive' CA, so the liberals rule here. For those with higher family values this is completely unfair. This law will let sexual predators get away with their crimes. I think a fair proposal would be to change the law so that parents are notified and at the same time those abused teen girls can let authorities know that they are abused by their parents/guardian so they can be brought to justice. Good parents/guardians, their rights are stripped away unfairly.
