I was rewatching the TV show Superman & Lois. In that show, Clark and Lois have twin boys who are 16. Their son Jonathan Kent was taking an illegal super drug called “X-Kryptonite”, and Lois and Clark blew up at him. I wonder if they have this energy for abortion because I know damn well Clark and Lois are pro-choice.

So I hate how they violated Jon’s autonomy.

and this applies to real life too; “my body, my choice” should apply to drug use too.

    I haven’t seen the show but I think the way parents ought to react to their children using drugs is to educate them about the effects of drugs. Blowing up at your children rarely does any good.

    If your daughter wants an abortion, it is also good to educate them about the risks and help them make an informed choice.

    So yes, in both cases people should make their own choices but parents and society should help them make informed choices
