"Appellant had not established by clear and convincing evidence that she was sufficiently mature to decide whether to terminate her pregnancy" - so....guess she'll just have to have a baby.
"You're only 16! You can't make the decision to have an abortion on your own! Don't have parents? Don't worry! We'll decide for you. And we've decided while you're not old enough to have an abortion, you're definitely old enough to raise a child! Unless of course, you don't want to. In which case, feel free to adopt your baby out to this totally not creepy Christian couple who will raise him or her to be an obedient christian child and wage slave, while we ignore you for the rest of your life. Which we hope will be short, as you wind up dead in a ditch by age 19, you worthless whore. And should the Christian Couple decide they don't want your baby for whatever reason... maybe God punished the baby with a defect or something! Well... your child can end up just like you! And if it's a girl, when she gets pregnant we'll tell her the same thing we told you. Because we care about life! As long as we don't actually have to do anything!"
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
