House episode disappointing, or more to the story?

I just saw an episode of the 2nd season (maybe the beginning of the 3rd) and was disappointed to see a storyline of abortion on the show. (The one where the 12yo diver is sexually active)

I am wondering, for those who have seen later episodes, are there more inconsistencies related to that episode, or was that some minor glitch that the screenwriters had to include, of which I can ignore?



For some reason the politically correct aspects of the episodes remind me of V for Vendetta. Blatant, but almost a parody on the issue.

An abortion will stop TTP if it is preganancy induced, thus the “treatment” is actually the abortion itself.

Personally, I detest that show. It’s absolutely unrealistic from a medical standpoint. It also sends the message that “good”, that is House’s great medical acumen, is linked to his addictions and other character flaws. It’s pure Hollywood tripe. Any doctor who did the things he is doing in real life would lose his license very quickly nowadays.
