Pro-Choice doesn't mean.... [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by uppityperson (a host of the Pro-Choice group).

I am the mother of a 19 year old daughter, that through irresponsible behavior and being 'in love' is 4 days away from aborting an 8-09 week fetus. The gravity of the situation is weighing heavily on her shoulders and she feels this is the right option for her at this time.

I am pro-choice and will fight tooth and nail for every woman's own reproductive rights.

But I would be a hypocrite if I said this didn't hurt like hell...Pro-choice does not equate to pro-abortion....
