Medical Authority over Minor Child

My 14 year old son is the father of a one year old, and possibly is the father of a second child. What rights do I have to require him to have a vasectomy? If I do have that right, how do I pursue the course of action needed?

WHAT????? NO!!!

how about you be a better parent and teach him about birth control, without sterilizing him.


omg.

You most certainly do NOT have that right. What kind of a parent are you?

As a parent, your job is to teach your son self-control. Not to force a medical procedure that will have lasting affects for the rest of his life.

If you can't control your son -- and you can't, that's clear -- you should make a big effort to find someone who can.

Find him a Mentor.

Perhaps our OP should have considered sterilization a long long time ago...for him/herself!

 

[CdwJava]

Sounds like controlling his comings and goings would be a start, take away his cell phone and computer if need be, and personally drop him off and pick him up from school. Clearly he has far too much time on his hands to contact and get together with people he cannot.

If he is delinquent and running away or staying out of your control, consider speaking to the police, to juvenile probation, or to a therapist on what to do.

Find him a Mentor.

And, meanwhile, keep him away from girls.

You have got to be kidding me.

Maybe this poor child's mother is the one who should have been on birth control

There are no words for your stupidity. NONE. Except that I hope Child Protective Services removes this child and any other from you.

This cannot be a real poster.

 

[CSO286]

You cannot limit his reproductive rights.

That is the same as requiring a daughter to undergo an abortion.


(i just got a little sick.)

Furthermore, there is not a reputable doctor in the country that would do the surgery.

Me, I call troll. Bobby is impregnating girls hither and yon and mom doesn't want to fix the behavior, just the boy.

Troll.
