Passing prop 4 will inflict morals and values onto families. Laws are not supposed to do this.

I believe we should vote NO on 4 because the process of getting an abortion under its regulation is very unsafe, unhealthy, and embarrassing for the girl. This article doesn't delve into the fact that before she informs her parents, she has to get permission from a judge. How intimidating! She has to ask a stranger of authority about why she wants this and if she can. That is unfair to our girls. Furthermore, the process of getting a hearing could take longer than 3 months and by that time, it is not as safe to get an abortion.

Please vote NO.
