A recent paper published in the University of Chicago Press journal Ethics argues that abortion should be considered “adequate care” for pregnant minors. The authors contend that doctors have a moral duty to ensure underage girls undergo abortions, even if the girl or her family objects.  

The paper suggests that, in some cases, abortion could be carried out using sedation or physical restraint if necessary.  

It also compares pregnancy in minors to serious medical conditions such as cancer, arguing that terminating a pregnancy is analogous to providing lifesaving treatment.  

The authors argue that caregivers should not present multiple options but instead treat pregnancy in minors as a condition requiring intervention, prioritizing what they describe as the child’s best interests. Pure evil.
