School helped secret abortion

FFS..

I think personally, both the girl and her mother need labotomies and sterilising. Another unplanned chav baby, being paid for by hardworking peoples taxes.

I would have thought the father would have needed the education about condoms..

Apparently it's to 'replace the baby she lost' - I'd have thought she would have come to her senses after the last time? Evidently not!

Oops, I did it again

MANSFIELD schoolgirl Melissa Smith, who was at the centre of the controversial school abortion row just six months ago, is pregnant again, Chad can exclusively reveal.
The Brunts pupil sparked a media frenzy back in May when it was revealed the 14-year-old had an abortion arranged through an outreach worker without her mother's knowledge.
Yesterday her mum confirmed that Melissa, who is now 15, is five weeks pregnant and plans to keep her baby. It is understood that her schoolboy boyfriend Dwain Smith, who also lives in Mansfield, is the father.
The teenage sweethearts were questioned by police over underage sex issues when Dwain was revealed as the father of the aborted baby earlier this year.
Speaking at her Brick Kiln Lane home, Melissa's mum Maureen told Chad: "I can confirm she is pregnant, but this time things have been done properly. Melissa told me straight away and we were able to discuss the situation as a family.
"I believe Melissa is pregnant again because she is reacting to what happened to her the first time. Had my daughter been given the time to think and discuss her pregnancy with me back then, it would have been a very different story. And this time it is."
Melissa's abortion scandal was a story which sent shockwaves across the country as debate centred on confidentiality issues and a parent's right to know.
Now the shock news that the schoolgirl is pregnant again will turn the national spotlight on the Ladybrook youngster and the hot topic of underage sex - raised only this week by Children's Minister Margaret Hodge.
News of the latest pregnancy comes as Melissa and her mum wait to see if they have been granted legal aid to take their abortion row case to the European Court of Human Rights.
Defiant Maureen will claim that her right to privacy was breached and will fight confidentiality laws for a ruling that a mother has the right to know if a daughter is being given pregnancy or abortion advice.
Yesterday, as she prepared to take Melissa to an ante-natal clinic, she insisted that fight would go on.
"Melissa's pregnancy has not changed a thing," she told Chad. "We are still fighting this because parents have the right to be there for their children."

They are doing it for the money and media attention.

I ponder when I was young and abortion was illegal,teenage girls who were pregnant had little choice.They were sent away to have the baby in secret and the child would be adopted(sometimes within the family).Sometimes some parents just threw the daughter out of the house altogether.

All in all I think things are better now than then.I'm also glad to think that abortion is not always the first step.It's not right for everyone.

Yes teenage pregnancy is a sad issue but at least young girls are not treated in the shameful ways they once were.
