It's coming from an adult perspective. <br /><br />My mom told me the facts of life at 8-yrs-old, including abortion and it didn't bother me a bit. It seemed reasonable. I didn't think "Gosh, you could have killed me!!! What is to stop us from killing each other now if you even could have killed your own daughter?" or anything because there were no memories of that and all and the rest was probabilities - like when you lay awake at night as a little kid thinking "if my parents had never met, I would NOT exist. Woooo." And in case it needs to be said, 8 is only 8 years away from being a fetus.<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-26898108784052598252013-05-29T14:21:30.271-05:002013-05-29T14:21:30.271-05:00How could she not "afford" an abortion i...How could she not "afford" an abortion in a technically still communist very pro-abortion country?<br /><br />Smells fishy.
