It isn't as though I would break down in tears over it when it's brought up. But, it's something I went through that was VERY traumatic. Both physically [I distinctly remember being told to not scream], and emotionally [cried for a week].

Anyone that tells you they simply moved on is not telling you the whole truth.

Perhaps for each person its a bit different?
Can we just leave it at that?

My point was that the popular view put out there is that it's traumatic for every woman and every woman will regret it. It just isn't the case.
True 'nuff

Having seen her in person over the years, there isn't anything wrong with her nose. The problem is her face has lots of wear and tear from smoking and being extremely thin makes it more pronounced.

I don't understand why you are discussing this in the third person... Do you regret having an abortion or have you moved on?

I had a GF in high school that went off and had an abortion behind my back, it tainted all later relationships. At the time I was a VERY devote Catholic and had to be TALKED into having sex in the first place (true story). Her father was a MISSIONARY, go figure, and her Aunt snuck her off to do the deed. I never forgave her and have thought about that child on the occasions when I see other people with children. It honestly helped convince me to get fixed at the ripe old age of 24... I never want to allow someone else the ability to choose whether or not my child gets to live. NEVER.

On the other hand, I really couldn't care less how many other children are aborted as long as I don't have to pay for it. I understand that I'm paying for welfare but I guess that I'd rather pay for them to live than pay for them to die....

Anyway, I don't agree that women that were raped should have to put up with any more trauma, although I understand that if rape victims were let off the hook, wouldn't all abortion candidates claim rape? I guess they would have to prove it or have a case out or something.... I despise rapists, molester, etc and think they should be castrated!

I guess... I really wanted to be a better person than the rest of my family and tried really hard to do so. I obviously didn't succeed, the nut really doesn't fall far from the tree, I guess. Heck, I even considered the priesthood at one point but I fell into a "bad crowd", my Dad died, and I went nuts! Total goody two shoes to complete stoner, burn out in just a few months!!!

I was specifically referring to an article I read last week about the emotional impact of abortions.

I do not regret.

Uhhh...I'm pretty sure the Priesthood is the bad crowd.
