A post-abortive woman describes her experience. I get a lot of stuff forwarded to me, but this leaves a big impact because the story is so very common, and yet so poignant.

This, or something very much like it, should be a required part of all sex ed. classes in schools. (If anyone from my school district sees this, I’m going to get fired for saying that.)
Nothing graphic, nothing trite, nothing about feminism…just a woman sharing her truth.
I hope she’s right and others will speak truthfully, but more than that, I hope she can find some peace through her work to end abortion.

That’s why it’s so good. Because it’s not trite and there’s no hidden agenda. I cried when she describes how she walked out of the clinic and her boyfriend was gone. The feeling of not having a choice, and just the whole thing of giving the people working at the clinic flowers. The short term relief, at what expense?

A marvellous video, I hope it goes viral.

Thanks very much for posting this video. Its very touching.
Congratulations to the woman for her honesty, openness and her efforts to protect other women from the same miserable fate.
If you have one more minute, help stop the United Nations from “fully recognizing young people’s sexual and reproductive rights, access to “safe abortion” and related rights”, read the Family Watch International’s letter at http://www.familywatchinternational.org/fwi/newsletter/0465.cfm#Pres Then e-mail the UN’s 165 member states asking them to reject the radical youth document that will soon come before the General Assembly.
