Susan G. Komen (SGK) is one of the most influential non-profit organizations in terms of its effort in championing their cause. We have been given the task to help rebuild their image, and offer our recommendations on how to regain public trust and support. After the defunding of Planned Parenthood (PP) and its mismanagement of dissemination of information and response, the question that strikes us was why Planned Parenthood responded to the news and actions of SGK negatively.

Does the father have a say when it comes to abortion? It was ruled unconstitutional under the Supreme Court in Plan Parenthood v. Danforth under the reasoning that the husband’s refusal to consent would veto the women’s choice to terminate a pregnancy and considering that she is the one who is caring the pregnancy the court voted in favor of the mother. Which now prevents the father from vetoing the choice of the mother in the choice of abortion. If the father wants the mother to go through with abortion but she says no as a result the father will still have to pay child support. The father does not even have to be notified due to the Supreme Court decision on Plan Parenthood v. Casey.

Numerous attempts have been made to define the term fetus. Scholars have attempted to use both biological and psychological aspects, some have gone further to outline characteristics and conditions that define a fetus (Garrett et al., 2011). Others have tied the developmental aspects related to viability, birth and conception. The United States Supreme Court definition provides an alternate decision. The case of Planned Parenthood vs. Casey and Roe vs. Wade best defines a fetus in terms of viability (Nocon, 2010).

Hello Mr. Loa, When I originally chose my topic for writing project two, i was stuck between the effects Barbie has on our self-esteem and the federal funding of Planned Parenthood.
