What a nice, compassionate person you are. I wish you could end up pregnant with an unwanted child. Then, maybe you'd be qualified to open your ignorant mouth on the subject. :|

It's not exactly difficult to not be pregnant if you don't want to be.

Show me a 14 year old girl tried as an adult in recent years?

When did I say a 14 year old girl? They are treated as adults only when it is convenient it seems. When they get knocked up, suddenly they are kids again that need to tell mom and dad they are pregnant.

It is when people such as yourself supply abstinence only sex education.

Frankly I don't know whether to show disdain or pity to you ...

It's always some A-hole wih a penis that has all the answers about womens reproductive rights and responsibilites. Generally,they appear to me to be cut from the same cloth as the group that praises killing an abortion doctor to save an unwanted fetus that they have no tie to emotionally or physically. Neocons are absolutely the laughing stock of the true moral valued citezens of this "FREE AMERICA".

Kepp up the good work Zendari. We do need a laugh in these trying, politcal times of today.

Sorry, a 14 year old regardless of gender. I've never heard of one being tried as an adult in recent years.

Abstinence is 100% successful at preventing pregnancy.

It really takes the liberal brain trust to figure out how to use a condom.

So now the courts get to decide at what age children no longer need to follow the wishes of their parents? Especially when she's still living at home? Doesn't that seem a little overboard to anyone?

This post has nothing to do w/ birth control, why would it be about abortion if someone had used birth control?

To a religous family, contraception might as well be rocket science. If she knew enough about birth control she wouldn't be in this situation. It's pretty common for kids in heavilly religious families to have abortions, how ironic that may be.

No, what is overboard is parents expecting the state to enforce my house my rules.

This is all about sex being t3h d3v1L. It's not good enough that some people who choose to have sex will have consequences to deal with - zendari and his ilk would like every person who chooses to have premarital sex to instantly be 8 months pregnant, on the street, and dying of AIDs. Or at least that's what you get if you add up all of zendari's comments on the matter.

Making this happen of course requires discouraging the use of birth control, condoms, and any other measures that reduce various risks for people who have sex; when your basis is some sort of twisted moral imperative, you need to work to increase risks, not reduce them.

You hypocrite, out of one side of your mouth you say abstinence only education, then out of the other you say birth control. You don't see the hypocrisy? And your response, to bash liberals again, how typical of you. You know something, I always considered myself moderate until your type came along and told me I was liberal for not agreeing with you. But people like you make me proud to take up the title 'Liberal'.

That's the thing about kids in religious families, despite all their Jesus and beatings and prayers, they're just as horny as kids from those dangerous "librul" families. The religious kid goes out, has sex, totally ignorant of birth control options, pregnancy, STDs, etc. Then when she ends up pregnant, her sinful ways are blamed, instead of the parent taking responsibility for not educating their child. Many times the girl will end up aborting, to avoid a beating for being a devil child.

Because it's so damn difficult to figure out how to use birth control on your own.

If you're going to stick your pecker into holes or spread your legs for a 14 year old pimple farmer you'll get what's "coming" to you.

If you're living on someone else's bill you play by their rules or GTFO.

This is why I say that the "pro-life" side really isn't concerned with abortion at all. They're only interested with pushing their religion and values on the rest of us and view pregnancy and STDs as a failure to follow their gawd.

Right here for ya....here's the article:

Teen To Be Tried As Adult In Beating Case
Fitch High incident caught on videotape
Published on 11/3/2005

Editor's note: The Day has a policy of not publishing the names of young people involved in juvenile criminal cases, which by law are not open to the public. The following news story concerns a 14- year-old whose assault case was moved from juvenile court to New London Superior Court after a judge determined the seriousness of the alleged crime warrants that he be tried as an adult. In light of the judge's ruling and the public identification of the teenager and his alleged crime,The Day is covering the story and is identifying the accused.

A 14-year-old teenager will be tried as an adult for allegedly assaulting a fellow Robert E. Fitch Senior High School student while a friend of the assailant videotaped the attack.

Allen Nielsen of 191 Quaker Farm Road, Mystic, has been charged with second-degree assault in the September attack on Groton school grounds.

Nielsen's case was transferred Wednesday from juvenile court to New London Superior Court to determine if the case should be heard in the adult courthouse. Before the judge made a decision, the courtroom was cleared of all adults who were not involved in Nielsen's case. But no sooner than the court was cleared the public was allowed back in as both the state and the court decided to accept the case and try him as an adult.

The victim was punched and kicked, causing numerous injuries including fractured bones in his face. Nielsen entered a not guilty plea and his case was continued to Nov. 23.

Nielsen, who faces five years in prison on the assault charge, may face more charges as Assistant State's Attorney Paul Narducci said the prosecution is considering whether it will tack on a charge of conspiracy to commit second-degree assault, a penalty that carries an additional five years in prison.

Judge Susan Handy placed him under house arrest, where he will wear an electronic monitoring device. He is only allowed to leave the house to go to tutoring, counseling and family and religious events. Handy said that if Nielsen did not obey the court's rules, he would be sent to jail.

The juvenile court had released Nielsen on a promise to appear in court. Handy said that if he were an adult, Nielsen would easily face a bond in the range of $250,000 to $500,000.

Handy said the state has a strong case and evidence, including the videotape that was made by another juvenile who allegedly planned the attack with Nielsen. Handy said it was not a matter of whether Nielsen will serve time but how long he will spend in jail.

?The video is absolutely outrageous,? said Handy. ?This was a planned conspiracy to attack the innocent victim and it's all on tape. This defendant is actually the one that perpetuated the assault.?

The case of the juvenile who videotaped the attack will be transferred from the juvenile court to the Superior Court for the court to determine whether that juvenile also should be tried as an adult.

forced to notify or be notified, afterwards preferably, but the parents should absolutely not be able to force their kids to give birth and neither be able to force them to have an abortion

So how would you feel if I knocked your daughter up? Would you kick her out? Would you tell her to get an abortion? What would YOU do

There is a huge difference between blind obedience and outright defiance and disrespect.

So getting pregnant is outright disrespect? I'm pretty sure she didn't mean to do it on purpose.

If you don't give a sh!t about the 'rents why are you living with them?

When does having sex or getting pregnant mean that you don't care about your parents? Do YOU have sex? Does that mean YOU don't care about your parents?

Like I said in the other thread any minor girl that gets an abortion should immediately become a legal adult and parents freed from responsibilities.

You make it sound like if your child does something wrong (which this is still even questionable), that a parent should cast them aside. Of course, we all know the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, so I wonder if that's what your parents did you to you when you screwed up when you were younger?
