"They just told her that if she concealed it from her family, that it would be free of charge and no financial responsibility."
Sounds like BS to me. Why would they tell her specifically to not tell her family?
Maybe the girl told them that the family wouldn't approve of the abortion and that is the reason they told her to conceal it from her parents.
there are many valid reasons for young girls to not have to tell their parents. to imply otherwise is ridiculous.
what are those reasons?
I mean the parent is responsible for that CHILD until they are 18 years old
im just saying that I work with kids this age, and there is no way that you can tell me that they are mature enough to make this kind of decision
I do have an issue with this and thats because the parent is responsible for that child and not the school. Even a 17 year old has to have written permission from the parent to enter the military.
The school out-stepped their bounds on this one. They had no right telling that girl what to do, behind the parents back. It would be that schools obligation to inform the parents of the girls intentions. No different if the girl went to a school official and made statements that she wanted to kill herself and they told her to go to a doctor but dont tell her parents.
very true. a 15 year old will do anything they can to not get in trouble. IF this means putting the blame on someone else, for something like this, or altering the story, that will happen.

That is what I suspect happened: she was clearly raised pro-life, and when caught in the actual situation herself didn't want a kid. So she chose to terminate the pregnancy, and is now trying to shift the responsibility away so as not to anger her parents.
