+1. I didn't really realize what I'd done until years later. I was pressured into it by a female mentor/boss I thought was my friend. Still makes me sick to my stomach that I confided in her instead of my own mother.[/quote]

Unbelievably evil and wicked.[/quote]

Or it may have saved her and a child from a lifetime of misery.[/quote]

DP here. I think the evil and wicked part is the pressuring from the mentor/boss. I'm rabidly prochoice, but it has to be the woman's choice. [/quote]

I strongly suspect there's some revisionist history going on there. The "pressuring" may have simply been explaining the consequences and potential impacts, which are obviously significant with children.[/quote]

On what planet is it okay for a superior at work to encourage a junior staffer to abort a pregnancy? That is way, way out of bounds. Seek help if you think that's acceptable in any way. As a prior poster said, it's straight up evil.[/quote]

My point was there are a lot of ways that could have gone down that weren't "encouraging" or "pressuring." Explaining the serious consequences of having a child is neither, although it might cause someone to decide they don't want to put themselves and a child through that.[/quote]
