Abstract:
Laws mandating parental involvement in adolescent abortion decisions are in contrast to laws governing other aspects of adolescent health care. Studies support that adolescents are often capable of making mature, informed health care decisions. Nurses encountering these adolescents have a unique opportunity to support them through the system and enhance the decision-making process.
