It has to be a parent or legal guardian.
No. Parental consent isn't needed but the parent has to be aware of it. Although they don't need to give permission they must at least know and an abortion will not be performed unless the parent is aware of it or it shouldn't be. Look into adoption it's a much better choice then abortion.
not really but they probably will have to pay for the coat hanger...another note dont knock p any teenage girls u stupid ****!!!!ruin there life cause u just had to bust a nut and than avoid responsibilty by getin abortion go eat **** asshoole!!!!
unfortunately i don't believe you need parental consent to have an abortion.





although i think you should tell your parents anyway!!!!!!
It depends on the state she lives in. Every state has it's own laws regarding parental consent and notification.
In my area, it MUST be a LEGAL GUARDIAN for a MINOR child trying to get an abortion.
You might want to Google the abortion laws in your state. Each one is different.
';Underage'; would be the key word. If she is ';underage'; in your area (in some places, that means under 18...in most it means under 16) then she would need parental consent...and her parents would have access to all medical records, as well. You'll need to look up abortion laws in your area or contact planned parenthood.
It depends on the state that you live in. In some states yes you have to have parental consent, in others you need to simply inform your parents that you are doing it, there are also age restrictions in some place. For example you may need parental permission if you are under the age or 16 or maybe even 18. However, if a bordering states has no parental consent laws, they could go to that state to get the procedure done, without parental consent.
