Abortion Clinic, Social Workers Pressured Teen Into Abortion Without Parental Consent
Elizabeth Johnston reports:
A Virginia abortion clinic and local social services are facing a lawsuit after allegedly pressuring a teenage girl into aborting her baby without parental consent, even when the girl expressly wanted to keep the baby.
Bristol Women’s Health in Bristol, Virginia and the Dickenson County Department of Social Services are facing $15.4 million in damages over the suit, which was filed by the parents of the young mother.
They say that their daughter “intended to take her child to full term and intended to deliver her baby at the appropriate time” but was talked out of it after repeated attempts to do so by the clinic and social workers.
The teenager, who was 15 at the time “remained upset throughout the process, and initially refused to cooperate with any abortion” before she “was persuaded to abort her baby,” the lawsuit stated, as reported by WJHL.
