Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

My husband was a magician. He thrilled young and old alike with his amazing slight of hand. He would spend hours in front of the mirror practicing a new trick until no one, not even himself, could see the truth of what was going on. By diverting the attention of his audience he was able to amaze them.

As we see the battle waging about the de-funding of Planned Parenthood I cannot help but think that they too are good at magic. They distract the attention of the public from the truth of what they do, making people believe that they are doing amazing things.

The truth however, is that they are perpetuating a cycle of unhealthy and dangerous behavior. They have made the public believe that sex education from a young age will bring with it safety for our children, and hey, we all want our children safe, but is this the truth?

One only has to look at their teen site (formerly known as teen wire) to learn how to have just about any kind of sex you can think of. From masturbation, to the cost of abortion, to transgender issues, it is all there including how to keep all things as minors from your parents. They sell the condoms that fail, then provide the abortions and STD treatment that result from their failure and the promotion of sex. It is win, win, for them. They tell us our kids are not capable of saying no, and after all, don’t we want them to have “safe sex”.  However, just as abortion is far from safe, the stats of teen STD’s and teen pregnancy show us that there is no such thing. The only way to be 100%  safe is to not have sex.

For people who promote abortion, they go to great lengths to push their other services into the forefront while downplaying the number abortion they perform each year. They call their work “women’s health”, when in fact the reproductive health of countless women has been destroyed by them.

As a post abortive woman I am so grateful that the magic of Planned Parenthood is being exposed. Too many babies have died, too many teens have STD’s and lives that have been ruined, and too many women a have been left unable to have other children, are emotionally suffering or have died from abortion.

In the coming months, I pray we all do more to point out that there is no magic at Planned Parenthood. I also pray that the public continues to learn the truth so that in the end Planned Parenthood is amazed by their de-funding.
