My Son Chose Life

Just found this on YouTube. What a beautiful child! Thank God this boy (and his mom) chose life!

This is info given by his mommy:

I want to start by saying that I strongly believed in pro-choice before the birth of my son. Not until I held him for the first time, was it even possible for me to understand what pro-choice really meant.

My son deserved to live, from the very moment of conception, and the reason why I'm so passionate about the subject is, not only did several people close to me encourage abortion, but it was also a very real consideration for myself.

I am so thankful I went with my heart, and I thank you for taking the time to watch.




If you're considering abortion, please choose life. PLEASE CALL 800-395-HELP for free, confidential counseling services. http://www.pregnancycenters.org

After Abortion: Linda's Letter


Dear friend,

I was seventeen when I had my first abortion. I was a perfect candidate: too young, hadn't finished high school yet, no money, no skills, father of the baby didn't want to marry me, and adoption was too painful to think about.

Later in Nursing School, when I saw pictures of foetal development, I was shocked. That blob of tissue had feet, hands and a heartbeat.

I had become very interested in women's health care and reproductive rights, fighting for women's right to abortion, but what I was saying conflicted with what I was feeling.

Some of the things were:

  • If abortion is so right, why am I feeling guilty and seeking help from psychiatrists and feminist therapists?
  • If abortion is so right, why am I so hostile towards the father of the baby... an anger that turned into a hatred for all men?
  • If abortion is so right, why am I feeling exploited and so abused?
  • If abortion is so right, why am I needing increased amounts of alcohol and drugs to numb the pain?
  • If abortion is so right, why am I feeling so guilty around infertile couples who agonise over the wait for a baby by adoption?
  • If abortion is so right, why am I so depressed that I think of suicide as a way out?
  • If abortion isn't killing, then why, when I found a counsellor who allowed me to grieve therapeutically, did I symbolically need to take the torn, broken pieces of my baby's body from the garbage can in New York, sew him back together, name him and hold and rock and cry for what I did to him?
  • If abortion isn't the death of a baby, why am I grieving?

In Weba (Women Exploited by Abortion) I finally found women who didn't tell me I had "made the best decision at the time." They understood my struggle with denial and allowed me to express my feelings by saying, "I can't believe I killed my babies."

For women who say that they don't regret killing their babies, I say, "Wait." It took me five years to break through the stage of denial.

If there is grief, there was death.

If there was death, there was life.

Linda

The ABCs of Comprehensive Sex Education

The Abortion / Birth Control industry is the one lobbying for Comprehensive sex education in schools across the United States. Please watch this (MUST SEE):



Let me say that again,

The Abortion / Birth Control industry is the one lobbying for Comprehensive sex education in schools across the United States.
Just like their other campaigns, birth control /abortion advocates use compelling words & phrases. In the case of sex education, the key word is SCIENTIFIC. Here are some Quick Scientific Facts about the Teenage Brain from a recent study:
  • The brain is still developing during the teen years ...the teen brain is not a finished product, but is a work in progress.
  • the greatest changes to the parts of the brain that are responsible for functions such as
    self-control, judgment, emotions, and organization occur between puberty and adulthood
  • So you see a lot of this in your teens, right? Poor decision-making, recklessness, and emotional outbursts
  • Psychologically, teens are big children.
Just Google "teen brain" to find out more information from government, school & media web sites, example, here's one from Time Magazine.

So, how well do you think your reckless teen will handle the barrage of sex information (where abstinence is not emphasized, mentioned for 1 day & sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex the remaining days)? How would YOU have handled it when you were a teen? Ahhhh...

One more interesting fact, majority of teens are prolife according to a Gallup survey so this is a way for the multimillion abortion / birth control industry to expand to an even bigger market. Interested to know how much "nonprofit" abortion/birth control giant Planned Parenthood is already making?

It is also worth nothing that more than 50% of abortions are due to birth control failure. Yes, you read that right. In the US, according to pro-abortion Alan Guttmacher Institute,
so their insistence that "comprehensive sex education and access to contraception will lead to fewer abortions" is FALSE.

BOTTOM LINE: Please protect your teenager from the abortion / birth control industry. Protect their future.
