Little is known about minors\u2019 opinions of parental involvement laws.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title><jats:p>In\u2010depth interviews were conducted with 30 minors presenting for an abortion at one of three Chicago\u2010area clinics in 2010. Interviewers described the Illinois parental notification law (which was passed in 1995 but is not in effect because of legal challenges) and a corresponding judicial bypass option to the minors and asked their opinions about them. Interviews were coded and analyzed using content analysis and grounded theory methods.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Most minors perceived the law negatively, citing fears that it would lead to diminished reproductive autonomy for minors, forced continuation of pregnancies, adverse parental reactions (including emotional or physical abuse) and damaged parental relationships. A few held positive or ambivalent opinions, concluding that notifying a trusted adult could provide an adolescent with needed support, but that parental involvement should not be mandated. Most participants held negative opinions of judicial bypass, describing it as overwhelming and logistically complicated, and worrying that some minors might go to extreme lengths to avoid the process.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Many minors have deep concerns about the potential harm that could result from parental involvement laws. These opinions provide a valuable addition to the debate on such laws, which purportedly are intended to ensure minors\u2019 best interests.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1363\/4415912","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,2]],"date-time":"2012-07-02T17:18:02Z","timestamp":1341249482000},"page":"159-166","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Abortion\u2010Seeking Minors\u2019 Views on the Illinois Parental Notification Law: A Qualitative Study"],"prefix":"10.1363","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Erin K.","family":"Kavanagh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Section of Family Planning &amp; Contraceptive Research Division of Biological Sciences University of Chicago"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lee A.","family":"Hasselbacher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Section of Family Planning &amp; Contraceptive Research Division of Biological Sciences University of Chicago"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brittany","family":"Betham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pritzker School of Medicine University of Chicago"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sigrid","family":"Tristan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"New York University School of Medicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Melissa L.","family":"Gilliam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Biological Sciences University of Chicago"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"259","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","volume-title":"U.S. Teenage Pregnancies, Births and Abortions: National and State Trends and Trends by Race and Ethnicity","author":"Kost K","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","unstructured":"Guttmacher Institute Parental involvement in minors\u2019 abortions State Policies in Brief(as of May2012) <http:\/\/www.guttmacher.org\/statecenter\/spibs\/spib_PIMA.pdf> accessed May 1 2012."},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","unstructured":"Americans United for Life Defending life 2011: abortion <http:\/\/www.aul.org\/dl2011-abortion\/> accessed May 1 2012."},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","unstructured":"LintonPB BrejchaTandBreenP BriefAmicus Curiaeof Stewart Umholtz et al. in support of defendants\u2010appellees Hope Clinic v.
