The words "medical scandal" in the first paragraph of this article are very appropriate. It is absolutely shocking that our nation would allow minors to make these dramatic life changing decisions. It is one of the worst form of child abuse. Minors are not in any way competent or mature enough to make a decision that will change their lives forever, a decision that sometimes leads to suicide. The other side of this scandal is the abuse of parental rights. NO ONE has the "right" to limit a parent's knowledge, or to usurp parental control regarding these decisions.
