My first abortion took place when I was 19 and the second, when I was 26. I felt no guilt or shame about either and would do it again if necessary.

How did other people react to your abortion?

My mother and the friends I told were supportive - as were the two boyfriends concerned. I suspect my father would have had issues had he known.
