Abortion hurts women

Wow now I know this forum is heavily biased.

Not really, there's a fairly even split between liberals and conservatives. But liberals tend to dominate certain threads on specific issues, while conservatives also dominate certain threads with other specific issues.
 
Nothing. It is her choice. Others should piss off... life is tough.



The amount of guilt in having a child you don't want or love is far worse...

Man, I hope you don't have any kids.... but it's obvious you don't.
 
The most comprehensive and largest study of the mental health risks associated with abortion,was published on September 1, 2011, in the prestigious British Journal of Psychiatry.The study was a meta-analysis that examined 22 other studies that had been published between 1995 and 2009.[1] The study involved 877,181 women – 163,831 of whom had abortions.

Here’s what the study found:

Women who have had an abortion have an 81% higher risk of subsequent mental health problems compared to women who have not had an abortion.

Women who aborted have a 138% higher risk of mental health problems compared to women who have given birth.

Women who aborted have a 55% higher risk of mental health problems compared to women with an “unplanned” pregnancy who gave birth.

Women with a history of abortion have higher rates of anxiety (34% higher), depression (37%), alcohol use/misuse (110%), marijuana use (230%), and suicidal behavior (155%) compared to those who have not had abortions.

[Dr. Coleman’s meta-analysis excluded studies that were potentially biased or weak. The meta analysis only included studies that were published in peer reviewed journals, had at least 100 women participating, controlled for prior history of mental health or abuse (that could have skewed the results), and compared women to those who had not had abortions with those who had abortions.]

If you are a mother considering having your child slaughtered please at least give the child a name and apologize to him/her for having him/her put to death. The spirit of your slain son/daughter still lives and one day you will be reunited.

I dated a girl who had names for her two aborted children and she was in a lot of psychological conflict and torment over a decision she could never reverse. Women aren't stupid! Their instincts will let them know they severely went against their maternal nature by having their children slain. A nation that kills it's own children is a nation without hope. If you're reading this, then your mother never aborted you. I'm sorry, I love liberals and will likely lose any liberal friends I had here.

Homicide is the act of one human killing another.[1] A homicide requires only a volitional act by another person that results in death, and thus a homicide may result from accidental, reckless or negligent acts even if there is no intent to cause harm.
Homicide - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homicide

To think women are stupid enough to not realize they are having their child murdered is a severe insult to the intelligence of women! To think this won't cause the wounded mother trauma, guilt, regret, and internal conflict is extremely ridiculous.

If you had an abortion, I love you, God loves you, and your aborted child loves you and forgives you. If you are liberal, I feel you. I used to be pro-choice as one can get. I started a previous thread titled "Abortion is beautiful". I told my pro-life mother she should have aborted me. I have lived in jails and mental institutions with murderers, gangsters, junkies, pedophiles, and hoodlums, that I feel would have been better off aborted. I feel it is the lesser of two evils to have a child with HIV, fetal alcohol syndrome, or various other disabilities aborted, but homicide is homicide regardless.

What bothers me most is not the death of the child. The child dies and is spared the agony of life. It is the pain and grief it causes the mother who went against her maternal instincts to have her own child, the fruit of her womb, slaughtered, that bothers me the most. Realizing the pain, trauma, and mental health issues abortion causes women is what bothers me the most as well as how sick it is for society to approve of such madness!

A nation which legalizes homicide and kills it's innocent children is a nation without hope! I love you liberals and I feel you. I'm sorry but I had to speak the obvious truth here. God bless you!
The problem with studies like that, problems that make the study worthless, are the variables.

Women who abort facing increased mental health issues are probably true because women who abort are probably already facing mental health issues. Partying. Unprotected sex. Young (immature) etc.
