God help us. It looks like Prop 73, the parental notification for a minor's pregnancy, isn't going to pass. Only 40% of precincts are reporting, but it still doesn't look too good. Prop 74, teacher tenure, isn't looking good either. This is unbelievably disappointing. Our state needs tremendous help when people don't believe it's a parent's right to know if their well, "loose" teenager is killing her baby.
Sorry....had to write it. I know it's not poetry, but it's true. If your daughter gets herself knocked up, well, that's your first problem. She goes to kill her baby? You absolutely have a right to know.
Tell me why liberals campaign that a parent has a right to talk to their child about using drugs and cigarettes, but when it comes to abortion...hands off mom! And dad? Don't even think about it.
Oh Lord...help us.
There is still time, but I'm not entirely hopeful. I do hope, however, that I'm wrong and it turns around.
