Democrats are using the same pretext with this that they have used for years in opposing parental notification for abortion. That it could put the minor girl in some kind of danger from intolerant, punitive parents. They craft laws around what they perceive as the very worst parents--who are the minority--and in doing so punish the majority who are good parents.

Think about what they are saying with this argument. That most parents are terrible people, and it is the benevolent government's job to "protect" children from their own parents. They completely miss the irony of their own stance. If a minor child purportedly has such awful parents, shouldn't the child be removed from the home entirely?

They are always telling us to "trust" women in making their own reproductive decisions, yet when that decision results in a child, well, the politicians are the ones who know what's best for it, not the mother. And they will drive a wedge between her and her child.

For the Marxist Democratic party, reproductive rights end with birth. They'll take it from here, thank you very much. Because they own your kids, not you.
