Is this based on Select Distinct(Abortees) from Female Population or Select sum(Abortees) from Female Population before dividing by said population as I know some women who've had multiple abortions. As <9 weeks is by drugs it's all a bit misleading. With that said though, having an abortion is to easy IMHO and is seen as another simple choice for the modern girl.Comment

Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostI'm not blatantly anti-abortion, but I've been in a situation where my partner wanted to have the abortion and I was opposed to it on the grounds of 'it is what it is'. The decision should not be made lightly and I've seen women make the decision on the grounds of 'I've got a holiday booked' or 'im not with someone at the moment'. In the second case, that person made the decision three times and at 43 is now distraught as she now has no partner and the opportunity has gone.Comment

I watched the program. They pointed out that the research that has been carried out tends to show no difference between the mental health of women who've had an abortion and those who've carried the baby to full term. In most of the UK, most of the time, it's abortion on demand.
Abortion needs to take into account that it is the ending of a human life. It may be the lesser of two evils, it may be that the mother's rights entirely override those of the foetus (as one of the interviewees said), but IMO, the minimisation of that uncomfortable fact doesn't serve anyone.
Pro-lifers view the rights of the baby as paramount.
Pro-choicers view the rights of the woman as paramount.
I don't think there's much chance of a meeting of minds.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Originally posted by mudskipper View PostQuite - I think the point was that the law either needs changing to recognise that what is happening is abortion on demand or enforcing so that it isn't. The programme contrasted the situation in NI to UK. One can see why NI doesn't want to relax their laws when they see what happened in the UK.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment
