“She doesn’t want to have an abortion, but she doesn’t want to have a baby. That’s what I think people need to understand. You can be ambivalent about abortion and still decide to have one. And you can be ambivalent about abortion and still be pro-choice. Lots of people are.”
Renée Chelian, quoted Anna Quindlen “The Clinic: a No Spin Zone” Newsweek, October “16, 2006
Dr. Chelian run the Northland Family Planning Center, an abortion and family planning clinic
Pro-lifers need to encourage women to listen to that little voice that tells them that abortion is wrong. I believe that deep down, everyone knows that abortion is killing. Women who come to the clinic ambivalent may still have their minds changed by sidewalk counselors. Many pro-choice people as well have deep ambivalence about abortions. Often, the more a person knows about abortion, the more uneasiness they feel about it.
