Crisis Pregnancy Centers--Not What You Think

No, they don’t help people in crises, and especially not people who are pregnant and in a crisis.

Crisis Pregnancy Centers--Not What You Think

No, they don’t help people in crises, and especially not people who are pregnant and in a crisis.

Choosing to get an abortion is a hard-hitting decision that pregnant individuals may sometimes come to make if they decide that having a child is not right for them at that time. This decision is completely up to the prospective mothers (and no one else). Resources like Planned Parenthood have made it slightly easier to receive an abortion in America.

While Planned Parenthood, and various other abortion clinics, are strong in their efforts, there is so much more room for progress on the basis of medical and emotional terms for these abortion clinics. Yet every day, the validity of abortion clinics is challenged by the “pro-life agenda”. Planned Parenthood is vulnerable to defunding, and Roe vs. Wade is vigorously challenged by the more conservative side of the nation.

Numerous obstacles already exist for women who have taken the time to make the decision that they no longer want to carry a fetus. Yet self-satisfied people believe that they have the authority to establish what’s known as a Crisis Pregnancy Center.

“It is a fake abortion clinic that exists in America, and to quite possibly everyone’s surprise, more of them exist than abortion clinics in America”. It targets Planned Parenthood and also abortion centers, and they are strategically placed near abortion clinics in order to confuse people with appointments at abortion clinics.

Crisis pregnancy centers are not only wrong because their agenda attacks women who are pregnant, but they allow women to believe that the services they are receiving are helping them in the direction that they want to be achieved

Crisis pregnancy centers want to look medical. When you walk in, you may very well believe that you are walking into your appointment, but that is not at all the case.

They believe that they are doing their mission in educating women. What they really do is emotionally scar women who are in a sensitive time. Those who work at crisis pregnancy centers are aiding none other than their own inflated egos.

A topical Vice News video covered the “Fake Abortion Clinics of America”

Having interviewed with one of the employees at such centers, they revealed that

“the best ones [patients] you ever get are the ones that think they are walking in to get an abortion”

They have many ruses and tricks to reel in the most number of people to their “business”

If they get a call they say they “don’t like to discuss pricing on the phone” so that you are required to walk in and experience their cruelty.

A girl who went to this center said “there was a lot of talk and a video she had to watch, said that she needed god in her life.” This is traumatic and humiliating for a woman who wants to go through with an already traumatic operation. Someone Who Wants to Go Through with an Abortion, already knows that they are removing a bundle of cells that could be their own potential child. While an abortion is not right for everyone, it helps thousands of women in different situations, whether it be financial need, emotional ill-preparedness, medical reasons, or any other. Abortions save lives of mothers.

Pro-lifers who go to these extents in order to affect the lives of others believe that their ideas are extremely superior. They even place false information in the minds of people who come in for their pseudo services.

If the crisis pregnancy centers were upfront about their intentions, no one would walk into them. This is because their intentions are not wholesome and their ideals are not accepted among many.

Women who run abortion clinics care and support other women; women who work in deceptive crisis pregnancy centers intentionally harm the lives of others.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
