Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

Dr Susan Wicklund author of the book mentioned in a post below "This Common Secret" was a guest on WNYC radio today.

It is amazing to hear how she thinks of herself …she seems to think she is heroic for continuing to perform abortions. Her main theme is that abortion must be part of everyday conversations to take the shame away. However, some things, when they are wrong, will never take shame away no matter how much you speak of it. As I have said many times before, I do not believe anyone wants an abortion and so how can they make it a light occurrence in life. Thank God for that. I would be horrified to think that women, no matter justified they may believe their abortion to be, could make it something light in their lives.

Another concerned voice in the radio spot was the fact that in the movies "Juno" and
Knocked Up" the women chose to keep their babies…the host of the show actually made an implication that it may be a conspiracy to make abortion illegal….hmmm…what happened to choice….
