Sorry but any woman who admits to an abortion and has other children has altered and affected the relationship she has with those children.

Women who abort become incapable of developing a healthy relationship with the children they do not abort. They either fail to bond properly or become pathologically overprotective and overbearing. Come to think of it, I wonder how much prior abortions feed into the phenomenon of helicopter parenting...

"Women who abort become incapable of developing a healthy relationship with the children they do not abort."

I wouldn't say "incapable," but I'd say it's harder.

Abortion always produces "One dead, one wounded," although women will often say "I don't feel wounded, I only felt relief." But the wound is still there, and the ability to bond with your child later will be impaired.

(Multiple partners will make it harder to bond with a man, too. Notice the vast increase of women's callousness, cynicism, and bitterness against men, and vice versa.))

That's one reason why there are so many women who are relationship-impaired. With God's grace there can be healing, but it's going to be much harder to get it right.
