Why is giving a mother access to medical information , such as an ultrasound, "emotional stuff" ?
The ultrasound stuff is emotional stuff...and it does make the decision harder. It never stops the decision from being made. Either the woman has an abortion or does not. And that, after all, is what the decision is.
Why is that so difficult for you to understand?
Did you have any "emotional stuff" like Xrays etc done before your cancer surgery, Frank? Isn't that just sound medicine? If the Xrays had revealed that operating on the cancer, if successful or not, would leave you blind and deaf, isn't that something you should know?
If a sonogram shows a mother what her unborn really is like, isn't it sound medicine to give her that information before she irreversibly ends the unborn's very existence?
Why are you so afraid she will find out what's really going on? Why should she not be informed as to the unborn's heartbeat, brain function, movements, etc ? What are you afraid of?
It helps loosen the tongue.
