There are some things we have to accept. My wife was a nurse for thirty odd years. She was working while I was finishing college. At one particular hospital where she works as a scrub nurse in the OR, weekends were abortion time. All abortions re not tidy little D&Cs. A lot were late term, and the aborted fetuses were complete little babies. The worst thing was, that a lot of the women were having their third and forth abortion. This was just birth control for a good number of them. My wife used to come home in tears. The pill is a lessor evil. The morning after pill is better than the alternative.

I understand that view. I worked in a unit that did late term abortions and often volunteered to take those patients for other nurses who had moral qualms about it. They were all for health reasons, but many of the nurses still didn't want to participate. I think times have really changed as far as abortions go. Women today have so many options for birth control.
