[QUOTE]Originally posted by Zefram: [QB] [QUOTE]Really, I cant imagine anyone being so sactimonous as to tell a raped woman she must bear her attacker's child (and be legally/financially liable for the child too!).[/QUOTE]I do believe that, like cases where a mother's life is in danger, cases of incest and rape may justify an abortion. [QUOTE] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Zefram: there are always various forms of birth control prior to conception[/QUOTE]Not according to Bush there ain't. There's just one - abstinence [/QUOTE]It is the only 100% effective way to avoid pregnancy as well as AIDS. You can't argue too much with the results. [QUOTE]Little factoid: South Dakota is in the top ten states for not prosecuting deadbeat dads (fathers not paying child support).[/QUOTE]I am in complete agreement that deadbeat dads should be prosecuted. The father is at least 50% responsible and should face up to his responsibility. [QUOTE]Adoption is not always an option. I've known fifteen-year-olds who don't want to give their banies up -- but know they can't support them -- end up committing suicide out of a combination of guilt and post-partum depression.[/QUOTE]Studies have shown that abortion can also have a negative psychological impact on the mother. Surveys performed for a paper entitled [i]The Psychosocial Outcome of Induced Abortion[/i] submitted to the British Journal of Ob&Gyn found that within 8 weeks after having an abortion, 55% expressed guilt, 44% complained of nervous disorders, 36% had experienced sleep disturbances, 31% had regrets about their decision, and 11% had been prescribed psychotropic medicine by their family doctor. Another study presented in the American Journal of psychiatry of 500 women who had had abortions found that 50 percent expressed negative feelings, and up to 10 percent were classified as having developed "serious psychiatric complications."
