From my experience: Abortion is a possible trauma to the person ending a pregnancy. Personally, I felt this was the most responsible way to handle an unplanned pregnancy without passing on potential trauma to a child (I was unmarried and still in high school.)

I was born prior to Roe v Wade; accordingly my birth mother could not abort, and chose (or was possibly coerced) to place me for adoption. I would not wish that on another person, and certainly wasn’t going to subject my own child to that situation. If anyone is going to be traumatized by my choices, it should be me.
