Thank you, thank you, thank you. I was a 50's mom. Not by choice but by lack of effective birth control. Diaphragms, spermicide foam, and that good old standby "rhythm method". Yeah, right. Of course the MAN of the house refused to use condoms. Of course we are divorced and have been for 40+ years. I was a coward. I saw the results of many kitchen table abortions in those years. Massive infection, hemorrhage, and death. I caution young people newly married, or not, to wait to have children. Wait until you are sure of what you want out of this one time only life. I do not understand women who, upon being shown a new born drool, start spouting jibberish, declare "Oh, how beautiful" etc. ad nauseum. Now, I have three children and I love them. But....if I had had a choice, not then and not with that particular sperm donor and maybe never. So again, thanks for speaking out for the right of women not to have children. We are over 6 billion strong worldwide. Maybe a moritorium for a few years and we would not have starving and dying, abused children all over the world.
