PRO-ABORTION ARGUMENT:
"The circumstances of many women leave them no choice but to have an abortion."




PRO-LIFE ANSWER:
Those who are truly pro-choice must present a woman with a number of possible choices, rather than just selling the choice of abortion.

If we are prochoice, why are doctors, schools, family planning clinics, and abortion clinics not required to present women with facts about available choices, including adoption? A friend of mine who was formerly an abortion clinic counselor says:


I was totally uninformed of available alternatives to abortion. I never reccommended adoption or keeping the child. Furthermore, I was completely unaware of medical facts, including the development of the fetus. I received no training in factual matters--my job was just keep women happy and make sure they went through with an abortion.


With this kind of "counseling," how many women will choose anything other than abortion? Former owners and employees of abortion clinics have stated it was their job to "sell abortions" to pregnant women. Some clinics even hire professional marketing experts to train their staff in abortion sales.

Feminists for Life maintains, "If we could limit abortion to only those women who truly decided to have one, with adequate information without unfair and unjust pressures, we could cut the abortion rate dramatically."
