Just wondering.

I'm pro choice. In more than one way. I once sat and held my mother's hand and watched her die. She'd spent the last week groaning in desperate appalling agony as the terminal bowel cancer inevitably finished her off. Horribly, dreadfully slowly. It was gruesome. We are supposed to be a compassionate society, yet there was nothing I or any of the hospital staff could do to bring an end to her terrible suffering. We had to watch (and listen to) her suffer. It was a cruel and wicked way to die, and I wished with all my heart that there had been something, anything we could have done for her.

So, you once watched a video about an abortion. Trust me, you know nothing about life or death.

You have no idea what I've been through during my life.

You have no idea what other people have been through either. You seem to believe that if only we saw this (undoubtedly very well edited to be as distressing as possible) video of an atypical abortion, we would all join the forced birther brigade. Not happening.

And yet you still think it's okay to tell women what they can and can't do with their own bodies.

I am glad you werent banned from mumsnet for even making this thread.

TheFancyPoet · 21/03/2024 09:49

I searched for posts affirming motherhood, pro-life and traditional family values and found none. That is bizarre and makes this website really weird

You don't get banned for starting a pro forced birth thread. That isn't how Mumsnet works.

And there definitely are some women on here who are religious and have traditional family values, whatever those are. Your advanced search isn't working.

Make some then if you're that bothered. Or go to a forum you like better.

What does 'affirming motherhood' even mean? I mean, I am a mother and a bloody good one, but I don't generally bang on about it, unless prompted by posts on Mumsnet.

Well you found this one didn't you? If you want to talk about forced birth start your own thread. Why have you resurrected one from 2022?
