There is abortion regret but the other side tries so hard to hide it.

I never knew this until after my Mom died but my (much) older brother told me that she had had a miscarriage before I was born and she deeply mourned it until the day she died.

She never breathed a word of it to me...but then I was only in my early 20s when she died. I guess she might have told me if I was older...and more mature.

Women who celebrate their abortions (IIRC that's the new trend) are either delusional or psychopaths.

Thanks for posting. This is an important topic.

We have to be careful, though. I think we make a mistake if we accept this premise and argue on that basis.

Regret or no regret, a child is dead. Regarding the right or wrong of abortion, the mother’s feelings should not be the issue.

I understand that women will be torn apart, and I feel so badly for anyone who’s done that.

But I still think we always ought to respond to ANY pro-choice argument first with, “A child is dead.”

Many women do initially feel relief that the pressure is off them. But the regret comes creeping in, in unsuspecting ways.

There’s a difference between miscarriage and abortion in that one questions ones fault with miscarriage, but one KNOWS one’s own fault with abortion.
