One priest I know told me that a fellow once talked to him (NOT in confession) that he was distressed about his girlfriend having an abortion. And Father gently (I'm sure in his case) told him it can be what happens when men aren't committed enough to MARRY the girl. Not that it was right, but it was what pushed them over the edge. "Fun" has its consequences. Sometimes deadly. He wanted the baby, in theory, but not ALL that went with it. Like NOT "playing house with privileges."gemoftheoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05521207668262592414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499957141699011933.post-59175637332380264322009-04-30T03:16:00.000+01:002009-04-30T03:16:00.000+01:00I know someone who is the father of an aborted chi...I know someone who is the father of an aborted child and it's basically destroyed his relationship with certain family members because he has never dealt with the pain and anguish. He didn't want the abortion but she did it anyway. It makes me want to scream when I think of it so I try not to. I never believed guys had a connection to unborn children but I do now.Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08046773358292402621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499957141699011933.post-32767900290163985722009-04-29T14:28:00.000+01:002009-04-29T14:28:00.000+01:00the people that I've known that have had or been p...the people that I've known that have had or been party to abortions have always been deeply affected, despite their demeanor on the outside. It's a hard thing to reconcile and still walk around like it never happened.

It's a terrible thing to hope someone's miscarried, but when the other option was "abortion" you hope the first one was a miscarriage.<br /><br />Prayers indeed!
