Don't do it

A study published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry has found that women who have abortions are more likely to suffer psychological problems than those who don't.

"Those having an abortion had elevated rates of subsequent mental health problems including depression, anxiety, suicidal behaviors and substance use disorders," reports David Fergusson, a scientist at New Zealand's Christchurch School of Medicine & Health Science.

Fergusson's team tracked 1,265 girls born in the 1970s, 41 percent of whom became pregnant by the age of 25. Of the 14 percent who sought abortions, the study found that four out of ten experienced a major depression. The figure was 35 percent higher than for those women who chose to continue their pregnancies, said the abortion researcher, who told the Sidney Morning Herald that he was "an atheist, a rationalist and pro-choice."

The risk of anxiety disorders rose in a similar fashion, the study found. Women who had abortions, for instance, were twice as likely to drink alcohol at dangerous levels compared to those who did not. Fergusson's research team concluded, "The findings suggest that abortion in young women may be associated with increased risks of mental health problems."

The New Zealand study echoed a 2003 report by the Elliot Institute, a nonprofit, pro-life corporation focused on post-abortion research and education. That study found that women who have abortions are 65 percent more likely to experience clinical depression than those who carry their pregnancies to term.

The moral of this story: not only is abortion murder and wrong, but the longterm consequences are not good either. Don't take life lightly. Give an unborn a chance at life and yours will be better because of it.
