How can someone cope with having an abortion? I'm not trying to bring up whether it should be legal or not. I want to know how a person could voluntarily go through what I am going through. I know they have counselors to help, but I still don't understand.
The difference is very simple. You and your wife wanted the baby.
That being said and I think it's right, every woman, who has ever told me she had an abortion, said it was one of the hardest things they ever went through and they think about it often. It is an easy thing for only the coldest of people.
To go into stePH's comment a little deeper. Women, who have abortions, see the pregnancy as something horrible that has happened to them and how it will destroy plans and make things difficult. You guys wanted and tried to get pregnant. It was a wonderful thing for you. From the beginning you were pouring in love and hope and thinking about how the future would be. It's very different.
