This really ticks me off!

"SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) - The government on Tuesday said it will resume its program to provide free "morning-after" contraceptives to girls as young as 14"

The morning after pill is bad enough (because it's murder), but for the state to offer it to 14 year old without parental knowledge is a new low! In what kind of a messed up mind does this make any sense. As I am writing this I am honestly trying to see things from their point of view, but it just does not compute. How can any government encourage a 14 to abort a human being without letting the parent's of the 14 have knowledge and input into the situation? If the 14 year old were caught shoplifting they would notify the parents, if the child (as I think most of us agree 14 year old still are) got in a fight at school or were caught cheating on a test, the parents would be involved. But somehow murder is not within the scope of parental responsibility. Is there not something here that seems terribly distorted?
