Ignorance


There's a big necessity of education about pregnancy and abortion in our society. Today at Emily's a girl came with all her relatives. Her mom, her boyfriend and her boyfriend's mom. All of them pushing her to get an abortion. All of them yelling at us to shut up. Three times they passed by, three times they didn't want to listen to us.

When the girl came out she didn't stop crying, she was really hurt. The mom wondered what was happening to her, why was she so sad. From my point of view, it seems almost unbelievable that not even the moms take care of what their daughters go through.
We need to educate our society. No wonder they get so easily fooled after what we see on the streets. Not only do they not know what a pregnancy or and abortion is, they don't even know how contraceptives work. This ignorance make them vulnerable, because they think they know everything, but no one is wiser than the most humble.

We have to start something, not only us, the interns by the work we do this summer on the streets and offices. We have to start moving and keep removing this ignorance from anyone we know. Let's spread the message, let's fight for life!
