Married at First Sight's Jamie Otis Shares Her Abortion Story: 'It Is a Necessary Option'
People ^ | May 20, 2019 | Jamie Otis

I guarantee you any woman who has ever had an abortion will forever remember it for the rest of her life. It’s not something you do lightly.

Ever since I was little, my mom told me she almost aborted me. I know that sounds a little hypocritical coming from me, but with that being said, my mom had a total of five children—none of whom she could provide for. I don’t mean this to be negative towards my mom. It’s just a fact. My mom was sexually abused by a relative and beaten to a bloody pulp so many times by boyfriends. I had no idea who my father was. My siblings and I would wake up with no heat, no electricity and no food half the time because my mom couldn’t afford us all. Even if she tried to have a job, she had five kids as a single woman and had no self-worth or support.

Fast-forward to a little bit later, and my mom became a full-blown drug addict. She had gone through so many hardships, and her only coping mechanism was drugs. I felt like I was living in a hellhole, to be honest. We lived in a trailer that had leaky ceilings with doors that wouldn’t shut all the way and windows that were duct-taped. But the hardest part was that my mom was gone. She left us for weeks at a time and we were just teenagers and kids fending for ourselves.

Media’s full push is on. Bringing out celebs and global press.

How late does the rest of the Western world tolerate abortion? 15 minutes after delivery?

It really is not a necessary option.

Keeping the legs closed and telling each other to put ice down the pants is a necessary option.

Whoopi Goldberg says she can’t remember if she’s had 6 or 7 abortions.

In Whoopi’s case I can’t think of a slug that would have sex with her .... however, knowing her thinking, she would probably resort to artificial insemination and then abort the child just so she could claim an abortion notch on her MeToo belt.

So instead of making better choices, let's kill the children.

A very selfish take.

Me, me, me, I, I, I....not a concern for the person that would be...

At least HER mom, with all of her shortcomings, allowed her to live this glorious life that she is living.

When I was in nursing school, I got pregnant again.

Did she skip class the day they covered that topic? SMH.

Because she’s a selfish ditz, who wants YOU to have to pay/offer services to delete her careless lifestyle.

Nothing could be more vile.
