Having grown up in a very religious family, I was petrified of getting pregnant outside of marriage because it meant I would never leave my hometown of be independent from my family. While that may or may not have been true, it is what I believed. During college, I provided support to friends as their person to go with them to the clinic and be there afterwards. No one should be allowed to force someone else into healthcare decisions. As I watched the training video, both experiences I had supporting friends completely aligned with the video. They made the best healthcare decision for them. Was it emotional? Absolutely. Did they have regrets? The simple answer is no even though they had different reasons for wanting an abortion. Now 20 years later and I've had my own children (and 11 years as a teacher), I cannot fathom being backed into a political corner by a minority group of people who don't know me and have more legal control of my body than I do. I cannot fathom my former students who would be forced to keep a pregnancy under Georgia's current abortion laws. I have seen first hand in my current therapist position the mental health outcomes of those forced to have children when they themselves were children. Persons with reproductive capabilities should have all the same bodily autonomy as those who do not have reproductive capabilities.
