WHAT ABOUT MEN WHOSE BABIES ARE ABORTED AGAINST THEIR WISH? (letter to Dom Post, Oct 15)

‘He controlled every aspect of my life’ (October 15) begs some awkward questions.
 
It’s unspeakably awful for women to be forced to have babies, but what about men whose children are aborted against their wishes? Are some (inexcusably) violent men traumatised by that loss? Do some live with the suspicion that their wife or partner killed the child they longed for?
 
Jacinda Ardern wept at the sight of empty shoes representing people who tragically died by suicide. How did she feel about 13,000 empty booties at Parliament representing lives lost last year by abortion?
 
Jackie Edmond’s Family Planning mantra, ‘Every child a wanted child’, ushered in legal abortion which was meant to end child abuse and sexual abuse. Why has it sky-rocketed? And now that 500,000 ‘unwanted’ children have been aborted, where are the teachers, builders, nurses and police we’re desperate for?
 
Instead of Women’s Refuges where ‘they would be heard’, would the needs of pregnant abused women be better met at pregnancy help centres?
 
Pregnancy Help provides not only sympathy, but accommodation and every practical support including referral, if chosen, for adoption - which transforms an unwanted pregnancy into a most wanted child.
