Every clinic, every week, sees women who are adamant that an abortion is their only option, until the appointment is made, the theatre is prepared and they have the capacity to decide whether it is truly what they want. Then, the wanted end to the pregnancy becomes unwanted.
And that's what sidewalk counsellors do. They talk to women and ask them if abortion is what they really want...and guess what... a lot of women DON'T want abortion.
