Abortion guilt feelings are real

IN response to the critics of my letter (‘No such thing as safe abortion,’ Irish Examiner, August 19), I would like to make a number of points.

Contrary to "devaluing women" or "having a low opinion of them," abortion is very convenient for irresponsible men who have no respect for women.

At no stage did I suggest that choosing a career over parenting was selfish. But choosing a career over the life of one's child, born or unborn, is quite a different matter.
