it's nationwide. It's a big topic amongst pro-choicers.

abortion in teenagers has to be approved by a guardian...so....I'm thinking no.

Mew Does it!? Not where I live it doesn't, but then I'm not from the USA. Is that the case in every state, or just in Alaska?

Whoa. Poor Bristol. I hope she did make the choice on her own.

I don't think that strikes me as even remotely wrong.

I will always be pro-choice because my great-aunt, when 20 and impregnated, died during a crappy abortion (because abortion was illegal at the time). My grandfather was in the next room (it was in-home as you couldn't get a real one at the time) and 17 years old, and heard his sister die. He drank every day of his life, partly because of that.

However, while also agreeing with the previous poster, I have to say that this type of personal issue holds NO sway over me. People have their reasons for living their lives as they do, and I don't fault Palin (assuming this is true) for trying to keep her family private like this. This isn't, to me, some major flaw of character or morality, or some proof that there's an overarching inability for the woman to lead. Simply, that she's been through tragedy.
