Professor Eva Pajkrt:

I would like to add something to that. I have been doing this work for a very long time and I have never come across a woman who makes the request lightly. These women have many difficulties. There are not cases of women saying they are going on a vacation and that the pregnancy does not suit them. I seriously object to the statement that abortion on request is just something that people do, because there is always a bigger argument. They have problems, whether financial, housing or whatever else. The decision to have an abortion is not a light one.
