Women having an abortion will also have a higher or more likely chance of suffering anxiety, sleep disorders, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts, psychiatric illness, physical and mental health risks and risk-taking behavior. After reading the study enclosed here I couldn't quite find the upside to the life of a woman who either contemplates or does indeed have an abortion. If someone could find something worthy of mention for these women, could you please let me know of it for there is this pregnant teen in my neighborhood who is seriously considering taking this path toward Armageddon, and being the all-loving and concerned individual that I am--I would like to give her some sound advice before she destroys her life. http://afterabortion.org/2005/womens-suicide-rates-highest-after-abortion-new-study/
yeah, just ask Andrea Yates hormones really get missed up during pregnancy, abortion or no abortion heck, had she had an abortion some of the children may still be alive today - ironic life is not as black and white as your trying to make it, which is why the choice is not up to us, it is up to the one choosing to take the risks .
Did you read from the link provided of all the risks the aborting women will undoubtedly undergo if they do indeed get an abortion? Methinks the risks of women suffering from post abortion blues would outweigh any risks of giving birth to a healthy baby.
I have seen women have all their limbs amputated after giving birth, women die after giving birth, women going crazy after giving birth - both choices come with risks thus my quote "which is why the choice is not up to us, it is up to the one choosing to take the risks" .
Abortion doesn't cause mental problems. Those women who have mental problems post-abortion, had mental problems before abortion also. Women also frequently have depression after giving birth. The risks of dying are more than ten times greater from giving birth than from abortion. Your teenage neighbor should consider that.
Other than "don't have an abortion", there's no good advice anyone here can give based on so little information; and even then, the best advice will have a bad effect if it comes from the wrong person. She murdered those kids because she hated her husband, not because of hormones.
And what could be causing so many women to become suicidal? After all, it's just a blob of cells, isn't it? Just a trivial little medical procedure, right? Tell me, why doesn't the suicide risk go up after a woman has had a liver transplant, hmmm? I don't know if I could live with myself either if I had an innocent little human life killed.
Women need to know that having an abortion isn't killing anyone. Fetuses are not people. But we have pro-lifers here who want to make women believe fetuses are people and make women feel like they are murderers. If a woman kills herself over an abortion she had it's probably because of pro-life propaganda and pro-lifers only have themselves to blame for women committing suicide over something that is NOT a crime.
Whether it has been made a crime or not has nothing to do with anything here. The government may not be convicting these women and abortion doctors, but they are still being convicted by their own conscience.
Funny that you find one study that supports that opinion; Here are three that debunk it - http://www.jhsph.edu/sebin/o/a/Charles_2008_Contraception.pdf http://www.guttmacher.org/media/nr/2012/03/05/index.html http://feministing.com/2011/12/12/yet-another-study-says-abortion-doesnt-pose-a-mental-health-risk/ and if you even bother to read those, which I doubt . .try this one as well http://brutereason.net/2012/08/02/abortion-and-suicide-a-spurious-link/ The study you quote uses pre-abortion mental problems as a indicator of post-abortion problems, even though there are a number of other situations that could cause mental problems .. including birth. - - - Updated - - - So how do you live with yourself, given your stance of wanting to kill mixed race babies and DA babies.
I think she was suicidal, she thought killing herself would cause her children the pain of losing their mom, so she decided to kill them to save them from the pain... or more to the point, save her self the pain of thinking they would be in pain, course like so often seems to happen, when it came to killing herself, she could not do it - she thought she could not do it cause of the children, turns out she just could not do it period - jmho I think she should of got life in prison personally, but she got lucky and now has a chance to be free and have more children .
""Those women who have mental problems post-abortion, had mental problems before abortion also. """ Ain't that the truth... And why would the OP be concerned for these women, Anti-Choice/Anti-Woman folks think women should be punished for having abortions so any "concern" they show is phony.
What lies? You seem to have missed the point behind this post. The ultimate crime being laid upon these women is that most of them will be suffering some sort of emotional or higher level psychiatric disorder for having gone through the abortion procedure.
So, can we agree that an ounce of prevention may be worth a pound of cure, even as an externality to the institution of money based markets?
The vast majority of women who have an abortion report feeling relieved after the fact. If any woman feels guilty for having an abortion after it it is only because pro-lifers get to them with lies and propaganda. Women have absolutely no reason to feel guilty or bad for having an abortion as there is absolutely nothing morally wrong with it.
It is not the abortion that makes them suicidal, it is the duress their placed under from not getting enough welfare to support raising their babies and having to abort them.
It is so unfortunate that the same people who are against abortion are also against giving aid and welfare to those same children they want so desperately to be born. All because they believe women need to be punished for having sex and they expect them to learn to 'take responsibility' for their actions, all the while totally ignoring that many pregnant women are discriminated against in the workforce! I am sure you already know that so many other countries governments actually give paid maternity leave to both mothers and fathers. If only the US did this for mothers and fathers perhaps we would see a huge decline in abortion due to poverty!
no more so then someone having a baby that did not want one and giving it up for adoption... fact is the only one you can speak for is yourself, if one is too weak minded to have an abortion, don't get one... simple as that if one is too weak minded to give a child up for adoption, don't... simple as that not all women are created equal, not all react to the same events in their lives the same, that is why no one should be deciding for other women .
you say life isnt so black and white. yet you are basing a woman murdering all her children just on hormones? seriously? you believe that crap?
no I am not basing it just on just hormones, there was more to it then that, much more, more then you or I will ever know, we only know what the prosecution and the defense sold us, there is much more that she will never admit as she wants to be free someday at least that is my opinion the closest we got to the truth is her confession immediately after... after that the lawyer games began ...
