Does a pregnant minor need parents consent to terminate pregnancy?

The laws regarding the termination of pregnancy for a pregnant minor vary by state and country. In some places, a minor may be able to make the decision to terminate the pregnancy without parental consent if they are deemed mature enough to make the decision on their own. In other places, parental consent may be required. It is important for minors to research the laws in their specific area and consult with a trusted adult or healthcare provider for guidance.
