"Taken all together, these studies show that the mental health effects of abortion don't stop with women," Reardon said. "They will impact their families, too."
In other words, a woman's "choice" to commit infanticide has negative consequences for everyone around her.

Subconsciously or consciously they take out their wrath on kids because of their own self hatred.
...well, duh!
Lots of rocket science involved in the deductive reasoning to figure that out. [/sacasm]

ABORTION IS THE PINNACLE OF CHILD ABUSE.
Having done that, every other form of abuse seems minor.
This study is mind boggling. This is further proof that the psychological effects of abortion have not been examined thoroughly enough. This should be required reading for prospective mothers who think they may want to choose to abort.
Once a person crosses that line in the sand and lives with it, everything on the other side of the line they cross is now their new norm. It is done.
It has to be hard to turn back and hard to forget. No wonder that it impacts their life, even if they have done their best to forget and are repulsed by their decision.
The argument should read that victims of child abuse or spousal abuse, alcoholism, etc, are far more likely to get an abortion..
Just as they are more likely to commit abusive acts themselves..
Their entire experience has already been one of cheapening the value of life.
The very act of conception was probably an abusive and repugnant incident and, by extension, so too would the birth be unwanted and resented..
Why stop at abortion ?
The researchers obviously failed to control for personal bias..
How about "certifying a license to murder children goes in line with a certifying to abuse them"

Abortion is the ultimate child abuse. But it's no surprise that someone who would kill one of her own offspring, wouldn't think twice about abusing the rest.
Gosh, I'm just so surprised. < /s> After all, when the feminazis were campaigning for abortion rights, their mantra was "every child a wanted child." That is, if we let women kill the kids they didn't want, they'd be sure to treat the surviving children well and the incidence of child abuse and neglect would be lowered. Somehow it didn't quite work out that way, did it?
the first step to have either the abortion or to abuse a child is to have the mindset that children are inconvenient burdens that do nothing but mess up the lives of women and "hold them back"
Unfortunately this is a mindset that is shared by millions of Americans whether they have abortions or not - abuse kids or not.
When children are valued again - when their true worthiness is restored to the pedestal where it belongs...that will help.
Until then we're going to keep reading painfully obvious articles like this one.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but according to NARAL wasn't legal abortion supposed to be a remedy for child and spousal abuse? That was their biggest selling point in and around 1970 wasn't it? I guess 45 million just isn't enough , maybe 55 million will be the magic number when we start to see their predicted results... /s
There was a study that tracked women a year after childbirth and abortions. It was done by STAKES, and it found that women were four times more likely to die in the following year if they had an abortion as opposed to giving birth. Here's part of the study and a link to the rest.
New Studies Unmask High Maternal Death Rates From Abortion
David C. Reardon, Ph.D.
"Abortion advocates, relying on inaccurate maternal death data in the United States, routinely claim that a woman's risk of dying from childbirth is six, ten, or even twelve times higher than the risk of death from abortion.
In contrast, abortion critics have long contended that the statistics relied upon for maternal mortality calculations have been distorted and that the broader claim that "abortion is many times safer than childbirth" completely ignores high rates of other physical and psychological complications associated with abortion. Now a recent, unimpeachable study of pregnancy-associated deaths in Finland has shown that the risk of dying within a year after an abortion is several times higher than the risk of dying after miscarriage or childbirth.(1)
This well-designed record-based study is from STAKES, the statistical analysis unit of Finland's National Research and Development Center for Welfare and Health. In an effort to evaluate the accuracy of maternal death reports, STAKES researchers pulled the death certificate records for all the women of reproductive age (15-49) who died between 1987 and 1994--a total of 9,192 women. They then culled through the national health care data base to identify any pregnancy-related events for each of these women in the 12 months prior to their deaths. "

Wow. That's such a real stretch!
"A history of abortion is associated with more frequent acts of physical aggression toward subsequent children, according to a new study published in the Internet Journal of Pediatrics and Neonatology."
But don't mind us, we're just ignorant rednecks that are opposed to science, unlike liberals (You don't think this story will appear on DU, do you? Didn't think so.)
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHH!
Abortion IS child abuse.
The leftist feminazis will try to suppress this!
