That's because the government is already a willing participant.

Try telling that to all the knocked up teens over here in the UK.
Just because they can get away with it doesn't mean it should be considered a human right, IMO. What if your 13 year-old daughter announced that reproduction is her human right, and she plans to give up her ovaries to the first available young stud? I don't know what you'd do, but I'd shout, maybe slap her, put her in a convent or something. I dunno-- I'd react, and I wouldn't react on behalf of her "right" to reproduce.
