I am a young woman, who had an abortion not too long ago. October 12, 2012, to be exact. And I am more than greatful for my ability to do so. After breaking up with the guy I was dating on January 24, 2013, he turned very violent. These chemical imbalences in his own brain started to come through in his actions. I was very disappointed to see him acting out, and I know that some of those issues would have been something I would have dealt with in a child, if I were to have had one. One day, before I went to class (I'm a Junior at VCU) he cut himself in front of me, then whipped my hands on his blood, during an argument. I don't mean to shock y'all, but it was a very intense experience. The opportunity to have an abortion should be legal. A woman should have the choice. That doesn't mean, "Let's kill all the future babies!" It just means, let's think about the possibilities of consequence.
Best,
A
