Medpundit on parental notification

"These are not women, they are children and we need to protect them with all of our resources.

"Precisely. Which is why the New York Times study should be embraced by both sides of the abortion debate, rather than disparaging it as partisan. The pro-abortion side can stop painting notification laws as dangerous to the health of children by denying them abortion services - clearly they aren't. And the anti-abortion side can rest easy in the knowledge that the laws will continue to be on the books. If the Times hadn't run its own statistical study, then Dr. Joyce's study would have been the one to make headlines. Instead of "Consent Laws Make No Difference," but "Consent Laws Result in More Late Term Abortions." That headline may still run, but the most important thing about parental notification laws is not their ability to stop abortion. It's the important role they play in protecting the health of children by requiring parental awareness of an invasive medical procedure. "

So Medpundit sees the same thing I see....and noted in my previous post...I am prolife, but as a doctor, I work with all types of patients. I do not preach, since it is not my part. I advise, which is something else. I nearly always advise against abortion...but there was one time that I nudged a girl toward abortion, and I will write that story in my next post...
