Planned Parenthood prefers abortion to birth

Effects have causes. 

That many abortions *suggests* something

by Tom Crowe

Last year Planned Parenthood performed 333,964 abortions. that’s one abortion every 94 seconds, for an entire year.

Ninety-two percent of pregnant women who walk into a Planned Parenthood clinic for services get an abortion.

By contrast PP made only 2,303 adoption referrals, or one every 3 hours and 40 minutes, the amount of time it took them to do 145 abortions.

They insist that they’re there for women’s health and that abortions account for less than half of the services they perform. But their counting method and these abortion numbers just don’t allow for that.

A woman who walks in and eventually gets an abortion likely had multiple services done before the abortion: contraceptives, testing, consultation, screening. That’s potentially four (or more) services done for this one woman apart from her abortion. Extrapolate that out and yes: abortion accounts for a small percentage of what PP does annually.

But the fact remains: 92 percent of women who walk into a Planned Parenthood clinic pregnant walk out not with a live baby girl or boy to take home and raise and love, and not having begun the process to give the baby up for adoption, but having had an abortion. That’s a staggering rate of women choosing only one of the three options available.
