  13. Louisa Exercise Louisa was five months pregnant She had delayed making a decision concerning her pregnancy because, at seventeen, she did not think she was capable of carrying out the responsibilities of motherhood alone, and yet she was under pressure form her friend, Joe, who was the father, to have the child. Louisa had absolutely no desire to marry Joe; she was sure that they would be unable to live together.

  14. Louisa Exercise Joe had previously told her that he was sterile, which proved to be untrue. When Louisa became pregnant, he offered to marry her. Joe loves children and wants a child. When Louisa finally decided to have an abortion, Joe arranged for Judge Robins to sign a restraining order against her.

  15. Louisa Exercise On the advice of her best friend, Anne, Louisa had the abortion anyway. Dr. Presley, who knowingly violated the restraining order, performed it. Joe filed charges against Louisa and the doctor. Judge Robins fined D Pressley for contempt of court, but pardoned Louisa because she was a minor. __ Louisa __ Joe __ Judge Robins __ Anne __ Dr Pressley
