I’m sure abortion has moral ramifications for the mother, either immediately or at some point down the road. (And those who claim they feel none are, I think, denying reality.) At any rate, there has to be some type of damages which is actionable or cognizable in a court of law. I suppose there could be some argument of pain and suffering along the lines of family members of condemned prisoners who see the execution botched, but this type of case really puts the pro-abortionists in a quandary. Do they support this young woman’s suit on the pain and suffering of knowing your child lived and then was disposed of? Or do they continue on their fantasy that abortion has no emotional or spiritual ramifications for the mother? Inquiring minds will be watching to see their reaction.

A while back, (I think it was in 2008) on the anniversary of Roe V Wade, NPR invited women who had had abortions in the past to call in and talk. Prager played some of the calls. It was devastating. One woman said she never had any other children because she felt she didn't deserve them. Another woman said she was never able to carry another pregnancy. The abortuaries don't educate women on the extended ramifications of their decision. Guilt, sterility, possibly a host psychological problems. I saw the movie ‘Last Chance Harvey’ the other day. In it, Emma Thompson plays a late 40-something woman who never married. SPOILER ALERT..... At one point she says, ‘I was pregnant once. I had an abortion because that's what smart girls did back then’. I had friends who had abortions in the 70’s. So far I haven't noticed any problems but I've never asked them about it. It just goes unsaid.
