Troy McClure talks of 'WOMEN in crisis situations' But, regardless of religious belief it's obvious that at every conception there are 2 parents involved, let alone 2 sets of grandparents. When the baby is 'wanted' he or she immediately becomes part of an extended family & an important social entity. Everything possible will be done to safeguard the pregnancy & the birth. To abort a healthy baby is to define him or her solely by what the mother feels about giving birth. What I find appalling is that any young woman should find herself in this kind of isolation as a result of a shared act of sex she later found was a mistake.
Ms Mulherin is suggesting that such mistakes might be avoided.
