That's very kind of you to say. I try to be all of the above and try to
put myself in another's shoes before making any judgments as to what I
might have done in their place. I just wish there weren't quite so many
people like Mr. Winn--so very quick to tie burdens onto other people and
so very reluctant to help share them. If faced with the decision
whether or not to have an abortion, I would have to make the decision
based on what was best for the foetus, myself and society (who might
well end up burdened with it [the future child] at some point). But
that decision would be mine to make, as any aftermath, would be mine to
deal with. Not my husband's, not society's and *certainly* not Mr.
Winn's.
