I'm a single dad with a senior in high school -- does she need to know this secret, and should she hear it from me?
  • on demand and without apology

    That's the old saying. And I still support it. But the crux of all of that was each individual woman's right to make her choices and tell or not tell as SHE wanted.

    We knew about some very vocal antichoice leaders who took their daughters for abortions so her special life wouldn't be ruined. But they still wanted it illegal for the masses. It would have been politically powerful to reveal their hypocracy, but we never told because it is HER private medical history. We were fighting for HER right to choice and privacy too. So we always honored it.
