.......and how long will it be before this gets into the argument?

Is the arbitrary age just too high?

Growing up too soon? Puberty strikes 7-year-old girls

Girls mature earlier then boys, they can drive a car at ~16. Why the arbitrary 18, why not 12y/o for age of consent?

...and so the argument goes. Slippery slope indeed.

I believe that your 'age of consent' has gone up recently. Used to be 12..now it's 14...that's for sex. For Marriage, it's 18 for most..unless you have your parents permission and a B/C. Then it falls back to age of sexual consent.

The age of sexual consent is going up.
The age of consent for marriage has more to do with the legal/contractual aspects of marriage IMHO.

You do not need parent permission to have an abortion

The state handles it 100% behind the parents back, at any age.

So the state is promoting poor values to kids, condoning and reinforcing sexual behavior at any age.

To bad the parents values are being removed from the picture. (devaluation of family values and principals)

Right, according to your link..

"An unemancipated minor may obtain an abortion without the consent of a parent or guardian"

This looks like they don't handle it. They do not intervene.

I also do not see anything in the educational code that says they promote it.In other words they don't say "You should choose to have an abortion over your other options" or something similar.

So yeah, it's looking like they don't handle it or promote it.

um, arrangements are made though the school, transportation is provided,

According to Winky's opinion piece one supposed unnamed counselor does this. Can't really take much from that unless there was some statewide school policy on that. Looked a little...didn't find anything yet.

the child is excused from school without consent or knowledge of the parent.

Yeah, they don't intervene.
