(30,058 posts)Elizabeth Smart, so mature, so sensitive, said about telling girls if they have sex early then no man has would want them back was not the right thing to say, some girl may be sexually abused and are sitting in these groups and those speaking to them is that telling them they are not worth anything no man will ever love them. I ask my pro-life sister some years back if her 12 year old granddaughter was raped and became pregnant would she want to punish her by forcing her to give birth, her answer was no, but this is different. I reminded her if abortions was outlawed and there is not any clinics to have am abortion then her granddaughter would be forced to give birth. It is about choices, we have to make the choice to have good clinics available for those in need.
