There is so much available for women and we should put more supports in place for them, if there is not already enough available by way of education, counselling or financial help to ensure they will be properly looked after because the other aspect is that many women who have an abortion are never the same again, but we do not hear about this. They have many problems, including psychological problems, after it happens. They are never the same again and that has to be remembered in this debate, too. I could never feel as strongly about anything else than the protection of a little unborn baby. If I, as a strong man, would not do that for a small unborn baby who is trying to make his or her way into this world, I would be worth nothing.
