Siblings of People Dying in Abortions Suffer Depression

Knowledge of the signs and symptoms of people suffering the effects of being alive when a sibling was aborted is vitally important to physicians and politicians. The resulting syndrome is so deeply damaging and difficult to treat it can help explain many psychiatric and medical illnesses.

Abortion is not in God’s plan.

I’ve often wondered how the surviving TWIN feels knowing that his mother killed his/her brother/sister in the womb and allowed him/her to live.

But then, I’ve always wondered how a person who has aborted a living human being can live with themselves as well.

No. It falls under the Psalm 2 plan, as do the people and nations which practice it.

I can’t imagine how you would handle it if you found out your OWN MOTHER had ‘disposed’ of your brother or sister. This applies to millions of Americans under the age of 40...

Abortion is a monstrous evil. The lives of the millions upon millions who have been murdered in this brutal fashion will one day be avenged. God will not let this stand.

The Democratic party in America supports the right of people to murder their unborn children. That’s why I call it the Party of Death.

Under no circumstances would I EVER vote for a Democrat, and I don’t understand how anyone can belong to that party.

We have some friends who adopted when we did. The main reason they chose adoption was they couldn’t fathom invitro for this very reason. She told me that if she were to get pregnant with ten kids, she couldn’t “eliminate” some of the babies to allow the others to live. How could she want a child so badly that she would kill other children to ensure the live birth of a few? How could she ever face the living children and think, “they were spared because they were located farther away from her cervix?” They now have two, beautiful daughters that are their world. Just a thought.

I’ve known two that I knew of.

One was deeply remorseful and guilt ridden, even haunted. She swore that no matter the circumstances she would never do it again, and advised other women not to. She was a serious alcoholic and in sub par health because of it. The other was boastful and strident about her abortion(s?) and embraced the deed: “I know I scraped out a human life. What of it?” - exact quote. She too was an alcoholic, but was primarily a cokehead. Every aspect of her life was dominated with dishonesty and what she perceived as her self interest, although her life was in fact very self limiting and self defeating.

I have no idea what became of either of them in the long run. Both were utter and absolute moonbats. Both were good people to get away from.

Yes, your friend chose the ethical option. Good for her; glad to know she now has a lovely family!

She has adopted twice from China and has two of the most adorable girls you would ever want to meet. I think that sometimes when God closes one door, HE open another full of possibility. They were pressured by some of their friends and neighbors to consider invitro to have “their own” children. I will honestly tell you that their girls are their OWN children. Thanks!

I’ve seen many people with adopted Chinese daughters. Does God always make them the most beautiful of children?

My hairdresser is an escapee from Communist China. She has five gorgeous, highly-educated daughters! I hate these stupid cultures that underrate women. What a foul and evil loss to their own countries.

I don't know that many women who have had an abortion but of the ones I do, 100% of them were profoundly affected negatively. One I remember from high school has been in a mental institution for most of her life since the abortion. There will of course be those that say there is no connection....

I had a GF many years ago who, in spite of my begging and pleading, aborted her (my) baby. I don't know what happened to her, but I continue to be haunted to this day by the experience. My wife of 38yrs was unable to have children. Sad. She knew this girl and also begged her not to do it.

What is truly sad about your hairdresser is this: eliminate the other four girls. She would only have been able to have one and that’s it. Sad, isn’t it? When I look at my little one, I think WE are the lucky ones even though many people think SHE is the lucky one. In fact, in China, there is a word for the orphans that get adopted. Loosely translated it means “lucky ones”.

BTW, my wife was not my wife at the time.
