SEATTLE -- The mother of a Ballard High School student is fuming after the health center on campus helped facilitate her daughter's abortion during school hours.

The mother, whom KOMO News has chosen to identify only as "Jill," says the clinic kept the information "confidential."

Proud father of a daughter and a son on the way.. I am disgusted by this article and the school.....

This is all schools. They promote sex to the kids and this is the result.

Not a shock, anywhere in America

And if she needed nose spray or a cough drop, the mother would have had to bring them in and sign a form giving permission for the NURSE to dispense them. No joke.

Umm, its Seattle.

[steve86]

They do that in my part of the state and the “health center” had better be armor-plated.

[GeronL]

Its anywhere in the USA.

I'll bet the girl's self esteem is sky high,though.The baby's...not so much.

The Marxists consider the teen smart enough to safely manage all the possible complications of an invasive operation, but the mom is too dumb to wisely use a voucher. Go figure!

And of course the taxpayers fund that to boot.

Parents should wake-up, but some are in the ‘American Idol’ mood; I know, I talk to my son in law to no avail, I just feel really bad for my grand kids.

The right of a female to murder her unborn is the ONLY absolute right that any of us have.

As the mom of a 17 year old, this breaks my heart. Prayers for the family.

T.J. Cosgrove of the King County Health Department, who administers the school-based programs for the health department, says it's always best if parents are involved in their children's health care, but don't always have a say.

"At any age in the state of Washington, an individual can consent to a termination of pregnancy," he said.

For the last few years we have tried to repeal the law that 13 yr old kids can go to the teacher if she is pregnant and get a abortion with out telling the parents...
It has always failed cause the libs use the argument we are trying to ban abortion,maybe if they read this a change may come about....

Article is taken from a DU post which are shocked that it is OK..............

I hope she can sue the life out of this school adminstration to pay for the mental health counseling her daughter and family will need, perhaps for years

[elpadre]

Two questions:

1. who paid for the killing?

2. Do the parents have any legal recourse?

[GSP.FAN]

Thank you share this with as many people as possible..

[MsLady]

Hope the mom sues and wins.

[GSP.FAN]

That won’t bring back a murdered child..
