Why is this such a problem?

Why can’t we just let nature take its course after we make our decisions.  If you don’t want babies, stop making them.  If you are not responsible enough to take precautions (which are not always 100%), then don’t be stupid enough to have sex.  I know I am going to tick some people off and that is not my intent, but I think that before I make it clear about how I feel towards parental notification of abortion, I need to make it clear how I feel about abortion.  Abortion is one way that adults have found to re-engineer the past and make their mistakes disappear.  We all need to grow up these days.  There was a time when people learned form their mistakes and “manned up” (or womaned up) to take responsibility for their actions.

And before one of you abortion advocates starts throwing hypotheticals at me, don’t.  Because I won’t listen to your rediculous hypothetical mumbo jumbo.  I know how you try to defend this thing.  “What if a woman is raped?”  Of all of the cases, what percentage does this make up?  I may be wrong, but I would guess that more than half of abortions are performed with far less dire circumstances.  “Men have no say, it is a woman’s body.”  It might be her body, but it isn’t her baby.  It is their baby, unless she found some way to magically make it appear in her womb.  And if they both decide to kill it (which is what they do in an abortion since the baby does have a heartbeat most of the time), then they are both wrong.  “She isn’t ready to be a mom.”  Well, she should have thought of that before she had sex.  Listen closely people, because some of you did not learn this lesson in school.  EVERY time you have sex, you take a chance.  Whether you have been “fixed”, are wearing protection, or nothing at all.  You COULD have a baby.  So, if you don’t want one, don’t do the thing that makes one.  Got it?

Now, on to notification.  If my child is going to have any surgery or medical work done before they are out of my house, I will be notified.  And if I am not notified I will sue the doctor, state, or what ever other entity I can blame for taking my childs well-being into their hands when it is not theirs to oversee.  No matter what you are, you are NOT the decision maker or allower of my child.  It is not in ANYONE’s area of responsibility to decide what is best for my child except for me and my wife alone.  And I will go to the grave protecting that right.  However, I hope that I bring my child up in a way that first, they will not make choices which lead them down this road and second, that I have taught them to take responsibility for their actions and third, that they know that they can come to me no matter what mistakes they have made and that I am always willing to accept them.  What is this world coming to when we no longer have trust in a family?  What is this world coming to when others feel that they know what is best for our children?
