Submitted by treid on Fri, 02/05/2010 - 03:56.

What IS Planned Parenthood?

Planned Parenthood is a health care provider, educaton and advocate.

 

What does Planned Parenthood DO?

Planned Parenthood provideshealth car, sex education and worldwide

information.

 

 

Planned Parenthood practices in-clinic abortion procedures.  These

procedures are said to be "safe and effective" to women terminating

pregnancies. 

 

Are any abortions really "safe and effective?"

 

Physicians For Life states, "Since the Supreme Court's 1793 Roe and Doe

decisions, at least hundreds of women have died from what pro-abortion group

insist on calling "safe and legal" abortions." According to Moments In Time,

abortions kill atleast 70,000 women a year. 

 

What does an illegal abortion look like?

Taniera,I can tell from your

Taniera,I can tell from your blog that you have strong feelings about this issue. While very complex, in America we generally simplify debates about abortion into just two, contrasting sides. In this post, I notice that you use both words and images to link Planned Parenthood with illegal and unsafe abortions. I wonder where Planned Parenthood in particular fits in with the statistics on fatal abortions from Moments in Time. Where do you think Planned Parenthood stands on what counts as unsafe abortions? You also mention that the organization works on sex education and worldwide information. This could be an area of further investigation for your research: What do you think is the role of such education in this debate?I know you were interested on varying the formatting in your posts, so I also wanted to say that I really like the organization of this one, with each short section answering a particular italicized, boldface question.-Hannah
