In Florida, in order to obtain an abortion, is parental consent required?
In the State of Florida, parental notification is required and not parental consent. In essence, one parent was to be informed that their daughter who is less than 18 years old wants to have an abortion. They do not have to agree or disagree with the daughter’s decision. In order to not have to notify a parent, the teenager may elect to have a judicial bypass to occur. This is where the patient can appear before a judge and if found competent and mature enough, a judge will sign paper work in order for parents not to be notified and the abortion procedure may proceed. This process is not difficult to do. Patient’s may call The Legal Abortion by Pill Clinics in order to get proper instructions on how to go about getting the Judicial Bypass for patient’s less than 18 years old.
