INCONVENIENCE AND EXPENSE THE REASONS FOR ABORTIONS (Letter to Dom Post, Nov 19)


So ‘figures show that if teenage parents were well supported, and continued to achieve academically, the outcomes of their children were no different to children who didn’t grow up in poverty’ (Child abuse report urges sexual health services overhaul, Nov 19). Fancy that. Now we know that ‘mental health’ reasons for abortion are a sham and that with moral and financial support teenagers’ babies don’t suffer, what reasons can there be for New Zealand’s high rate of abortion? Inconvenience and expense, that’s what.
