Fastforward 12 yrs. You are a family practice physician and you have a private practice. You are married with no children. Your best friends live across the street from you and they have a 15 yr old daughter. One day you walk into your office and see their daughter who runs to you and starts to cry saying that you need to help her because she needs an abortion. She can't tell her parents because they would think she is promiscuous and she isn't as she has gone out with her boyfriend for 2 years and it was their first time going too far.
