You were asking why someone bothered by the idea of parental consent for abortion is not equally bothered by the idea of parental consent for ear piercing.
My response was that, if a girl can't get her ears pierced because she's afraid to tell her parents, it's no big deal. If she can't get a safe, legal abortion because she's afraid to tell her parents, it's a much bigger deal.
Explain to me how that is upside down.
