I personally know from the hospital several patients who were refused sterilization by a physician because they had one child, wanted no more, but were deemed” to young” (age 19-24) to be sterilized because they might want children later when they were more “mature” to make a decision. Do you see the double standard? They are mature enough to decide about an abortion, but not mature enough to know they don’t want more children? Abortions that are botched do kill women. How about calling abortion what it is HRC, that would be murder. The woman can decide to: refrain from sex, insist on double birth control (partner and herself), carry to term and adopt out, or raise the child.
