Re: School helped secret abortion
OK look at the facts:-
She's 14
She was Pregnant
She turned to the school for help
She didnt inform her parents
Ok why didnt she inform her parents when she was obviously able to discuss the situation? Theres the main indicator for me.
The fact remains that this girl got help when she needed it, whether or not we personally believe an abortion was the best thing should not come into it. The decision was made, the pregnancy was terminated, ANY person in that situation would have second thoughts that is a natural reaction.
Abortion is there as a legal option for those that wish to chose it. Its also an option for those of us that dispise everything about abortion, should we/they need to use that option for ANY reason.
Abortion is an emotive subject hence why I said earlier that I did not care either way and consider it an necessary evil. I would much rather the choice be there whether the person having the abortion is 12 or 50 years old.
The fcat the girl did not tell her parents of her own free will indicates to me she did not want them to known. IF these parents had reacted badly when the school informed them and they did abuse the girl physically and mentally the school would then be directly implicated into the cause of abuse.
As I keep saying, the school helped the girl in a way the school should not have been expected. But the school did the right thing in a bad situation for that the people concerned need to know that they have helped this girl.
