7. That's not the issue with parental notification
PN abortion laws are anti-choice, and here's why. NONE of them include any "loopholes" for the pregnant child if she can't find one of her parents. Wonder why? Because the statistics on teenage pregnancies and broken homes are pretty clear. This is where you legislate if you want to affect the most pregnant teens.

Child is pregnant, Mom is helping her evaluate her choices, but Dad is nowhere to be found. Court says you no longer have a choice if you can't find and "notify" Dad.

Responsible parents don't need this kind of law.
