And hearing that you're an adoptive father makes a big difference and helps me understand where you're coming from. Thank you for sharing that. I really appreciate it. :) I hear you, Pete.

You clearly are an intelligent, well informed woman who must have weighed many factors in making your decision to abort. As I reflect on abortion, I find myself in the awkward position of espousing my moral views for women who find themselves in difficult and even desperate circumstances. My aim is not to condemn. As the adoptive father of two special needs children who could have easily been aborted, I simply hope and pray that more women in these situations would choose this option. I'm much more interested in promoting adoption than prosecuting abortion. Thanks for reading my post and responding with such passion and clarity.
