England's Attempt to Prevent Teenaged Abortions

My daughter sent me this article in email.

It's horrifying really when government involves itself in the family planning sphere.

Whatever happened to abstinence? How about teaching that? Our world needs to get back to basic Christian values!

I agree! And to even potentially affect their future ability to have children is heinous!

The Hippocratic Oath states in part: "I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.

I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion."

Sadly, we've fallen from that, too.
