FRC desires to help build a culture of life, holding that all human life is a gift to be treasured.

• This bill would protect minors from being subject to an abortion procedure without parental advice and input. It also respects and protects the rights of parents to parent their children free from government interferences. It institutes criminal penalties for doctors who do not obtain prior consent, outside of a medical emergency exception.
• This bill presents an opportunity for the Florida Supreme Court to see if the high state court was wrong back in 1989 when it struck down the parental consent law based on a right to privacy.
• Twenty-one stated require parental consent for abortion. Florida currently only requires that a parent be notified of a minor's abortion.
• Opponents of this bill claim that it is unnecessary because a minor can consent to other medical procedures without parental consent and because the sate supreme court has interpreted the privacy clause to apply to a minor's right to an abortion.  The fact that the Legislature omitted abortion as one of the procedures to which a minor could consent to without parental involvement speaks to the fact that an abortion is vastly different that any other medical procedure because it necessarily involves another life- that of an unborn child. Additionally, a parent's right to raise their child is historically protected in caselaw and should not be subservient to a minor's supposed right to have an abortion.
• Under current law, a minor can't get her ears pierced, get an aspirin at school, or go on a field trip without a parent's consent. (yet she can get an abortion)
• Polling shows 73% of Floridians's favor parent consent laws for abortion.

Family Watch works to protect and promote the family as the fundamental unit of society at the international, national and local level through education, pro-family advocacy, and family-based humanitarian aid.

To protect the family by working to preserve and promote traditional marriage, safeguard parental rights, defend human life, uphold religious liberty, and protect the health and innocence of children.

Family Watch policy positions are based on scientific research, social science data, lessons from history, and what has been proven across cultures to produce the best outcomes for men, women, children and, thus, for society.

The booming demand for trafficked women and children in recent years is due in part to the proliferation of pornography.

The National Pro-Life Alliance occupies a unique and important role in the pro-life movement. The focus of many other pro-life organizations is research, publications or counseling.

These are all important and worthy activities, but the National Pro-Life Alliance is singular in its focus on passing pro-life legislation that will protect the unborn from the moment of conception onward.

Our Mission Statement

Students for Life will create a culture where those most affected by abortion are empowered and equipped to recruit their peers to join our human rights movement, save lives on the front lines, lead local and national initiatives, and provide tangible resources while supporting those facing an unplanned pregnancy.
