Parental rights problems, Morality problems, Health problems: one judge knows best!

DrewM writes at Ace of Spades about a judge who has ordered the Food and Drug Administration to make available over-the-counter the "morning after" pill, so children of any age can buy it. Drew begins,

Dear lawyers....3 years of "law school" does not make you a priestly class fit to rule over a free people.

You know what "women 16 and under" are? Girls. Young, inexperienced, non-consenting children. They can't go on school field trips without permission slips or in many places take an aspirin at school without parental approval. They do not have the same rights or responsibilities as adults.

Then Drew quotes a lawyer/blogger named alexthechick, who writes,

I know everyone is sick of my rant on this but ignoring all the parental rights problems and the morality problems and the whole underage girls extraordinarily likely to have been at least statutorily raped problems, there's the health problems.

Yes, this is overly simplified but Plan B and its ilk work by dumping a massive amount of hormones into a woman's system. Except. Except these aren't women. These are girls. These are human beings with immature hormonal systems and it is not the best idea in the world to shock their systems like this. Not to mention that there are matters about proper dosage amounts and how to take it and what to do when it results in a miscarriage as opposed to a failure to implant. As someone with an utterly boned endocrine system, you don't want to mess up someone's development in the early teen years. You really and truly don't.

From the comments section:

Marriage is no longer marriage, citizens are no longer citizens, children are no longer children. The Left has won on every front they've fought in the language wars.
