Men & Abortion
Fathers are likely to play an important part in the decision of an abortion. The scenarios for men are many and varied, such as encouraging or passively accepting abortion, abandoning the mother, or unsuccessfully opposing abortion. Each circumstance leaves its own potential legacy of hurt and pain (see common symptoms below). This lost fatherhood experience is different, but equally important to acknowledge as lost motherhood.

"No one thinks the man is affected at all. He's not pregnant. He doesn't undergo the procedure. He's physically whole and never even has to meet the abortionist. No one thinks he feels any pain at all... except any other man who's been through it. Personally, I didn't think I needed the help. I thought I'd already dealt with it as well as I was going to. I thought that I was at peace with it. These kind people helped me find and deal with pain I didn't know I still carried. Regrets and grief were finally allowed to surface, where I could acknowledge and deal with them. The old wound was able to heal after all these years." – Retreat Testimonial
