Poll: Abortion for minors.

[Meatball]

Your first argument is a typical slippery slope, if we allow a what is to stop b or c or d from happening. All those other examples are not specifically related, they should be evaluated on their own.

That's not what I was going for, but I see how you could interpret my post that way.

What I mean to clarify is whether or not a minor should be able to make other medical decisions without permission from a parent. I just used extreme examples. I mean to point out that it's curious that one should take a position that a minor should make a medical decision for him/herself, but only this one.

I understand that abortion is a special case, but it's also a rather extreme case. Thus, one might conclude that if a minor can be trusted to make a choice on abortion, they should just as easily be trusted with lesser medical decisions.
