at 23, with two little children, i was finally on the path to getting on my feet.

i was only 18, sure everyone says wait til marriage but sex is fun and i thought he was the one... i was wrong.

i will not apologize for my abortion. i am not ashamed. i know without a doubt that my choice was the right choice for me.

i read about this organization today in the daily beast and felt compelled to share my story in support of women's rights and freedom in the u.s.

i was 16. this was my very first abortion.

it was 2006 and my relationship was still early and the birth control i had started was in the first month and had not kicked in yet, we were safe, but not safe enough.
