The state of California takes, out of the hands of minors, some decisions that could have negative repercussions, especially on their health, and gives it to their parents.<\/p>\n

\n

A California law recently went into effect that bans minors, defined as anyone under the age of 18, from using a tanning bed. The prohibition is absolute and there is no provision for parental permission. <\/p>\n

Lawmakers say the tan ban is necessary in order to protect the health and well-being of young people. California is the only state thus far to have a complete ban on tanning for minors. Other states allow the practice with a parent’s permission. <\/p>\n

The Golden State has other laws intended to safeguard the health of young people. <\/p>\n

If you are under 18 in California, you are forbidden from getting a tattoo. Like the tan ban, the law is absolute. A minor cannot get inked even with a parent’s permission. <\/p>\n

A person under 18 can get his or her ear or ears pierced; however, piercing any other body part will require a parent’s approval. A minor is also allowed to take an aspirin at school but only with a parent’s permission. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But there is one decision that the state does give to minors, even without parental permission. You can’t get an aspirin without permission, but you can kill your child<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

California allows a girl under the age of 18 to obtain an abortion without her parents’ permission — and without even notifying them. Additionally, the facility that provides the abortion is forbidden by law from informing the parents about the abortion.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that California voters have repeatedly rejected ballot initiatives that would have required parental notification for a minor seeking an abortion.<\/p>\n

A 14-year-old girl can obtain an abortion in California and her parents have absolutely no knowledge of the situation — and Californians believe it is acceptable. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So, by "the state of California", I mean, not just the government, but the people in general. It’s not just the state government that has its priorities inverted; it’s the liberals out there. Absolutely no consistency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
