Planned Parenthood charges for “free” pregnancy test only if woman isn’t considering abortion

Bound4Life has stories from women who went to Planned Parenthood hoping to get a pregnancy test and help with their pregnancies, only to be subjected to biased counseling and refused help when they say they are not interested in abortion.

Charity went to the Escondido, CA Planned Parenthood for help. She says:

“I just wanted a free pregnancy test to apply for state insurance, and  they told me its only free if I didn’t know I was willing to keep “it” or not. So I said of course I want to keep my baby. The woman said, “don’t say baby in here. It’s $35 for you to take a pregnancy test without counsel on ‘rescheduling your pregnancy.’” I said a few things about LIFE. My son said “you can’t kill my baby sister!” That’s when we decided on our daughter’s name – Zoe, Life … I’m now holding my sweet 6 month old; she is a marvelous tiny person!

A reader named Susan responds:

“The same thing happened to my friend at Planned Parenthood 21 years ago [in New Jersey]. She went in for a free pregnancy test (which was not free) and the only question they asked her was “when do you want to schedule your abortion?” When she said she didn’t want an abortion, they booted her out the door.”
