A member asked:
In what state can a 16 year old give birth without parental consent to the doctor?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Many: Well - assuming the teen carries the pregnancy to term - no one will be able to stop her from delivering as the unborn baby will prompt this parental consent or not. I think you want to know if parents must be informed - and often at the age of 16 minors can have some medical procedures - including birth or aborting - without notifying parents.
