The conservative politics of the Bush administration forced me to have an abortion I didn't want. Well, not literally, but let me explain.
I am a 42-year-old happily married mother of two elementary-schoolers. My husband and I both work, and like many couples, we're starved for time together.

Nice opinion post. The Washington Post never ceases to amaze me in the depths to which they are willing to descend.
IMHO, the article is made up BS. Look at the following question and answer from the "discussion" today:
[Langley, Va.: Do you plan on telling your kids about your abortion when they're older?
Dana L.: That depends on the needs of each child.]
"That depends on the needs of each child" - what kind of psychobabble bullsh*t is that? I interpret that as, if the kid is smart enough to find out, they will cross that bridge when they come to it, and make up more nonsense to weasel their way out of any repsonsibility.
For the sake of argument, if this story is true, how would you feel if you found out that a brother or sister was aborted/murdered by your parents, basically because it was inconvenient? And not only that, but your mother, b*tched, whined and moaned about the inconvenience of it all in a national newspaper for all the world to see. Don't you think it would make you question who they really are and the quality and depth of their love for you as their child?
Ditto, posted this on the other thread, but wanted you to see it.

Thanks - Nice job Dana, your kids have a great role model.
Based on the wealth of information in this very thread regarding the mechanisms and effects of Plan-B, why is this a good thing?
