Anti-Choice is on the Move Protect Teens

Q: Why vote “NO” on
Prop. 4? Because it puts
teens at risk.

A: Parents rightfully want
to be involved in their teenagers’
lives and we want our daughters
to come to us if they become
pregnant.

But in the real world, these laws
don’t work. No law can mandate
family communication.

Think about it, not all teens live in homes
where communication is possible.

The reality is desperate teens take desperate
measures.

She’s scared, she’s pregnant, what is she
going to do?

She certainly can’t navigate a crowded
courthouse and face a judge she’s never met
before. She may take matters into her own
hands by:

resorting to an unsafe, back alley, or .
illegal abortion;

going across the border; or.

even contemplating suicide..

Our daughters don’t need Prop. 4 – they need
counseling and quality medical care without
delay.

Proposition 4 Puts Our Teens at Risk

VOTE NO!


http://www.NOonProposition4.org • NO on 4




The real answer to teen pregnancy starts
with caring families — not new laws that put
teenagers at risk.

Real family communication must start long before a teen faces an
unplanned pregnancy. The best way to protect our daughters is to
begin talking with them about responsible, appropriate sexual behavior
— including abstinence — from the time they are young and fostering
an atmosphere assuring they can come to us.

Their health and safety is our responsibility.
