Here is your "balanced approach" by Planned Abortionhood...

They do actually stray for a second or two on their website and mention
pregnancy. Here is a clip from the "pregnancy" page (or half page) on
planned Abortionhoods' website:

If you are pregnant, you have three options to think about — abortion,
adoption, and parenting. Reading and learning about each one will help
you get the facts and may help you decide. It may also help to weigh the
benefits and risks of each one. Think about which benefits and risks are
most important to you.

Only you can decide which choice is right for you. But women often find
it helpful to talk it through with someone else. You may choose to talk
with your partner or a trusted family member or friend. Pick someone you
think will be supportive. It's important to remember that you get to
decide who is a part of your decision-making process.

Family planning clinics, like your local Planned Parenthood health
center, have specially trained staff who can talk with you about all of
your options. But beware of so-called "crisis pregnancy centers". These
are fake clinics run by people who are anti-abortion. They often don't
give women all their options. They have a history of scaring women into
not having abortions. Absolutely no one should pressure you or trick you
into making a decision you're not comfortable with.

So, notice in the paragraph where they actually start talking about
"options" the parenting is third in the list of options, behind of
course *abortion* which is all they are really interested in. Then they
go into *scare* tactics to try to intimidate the woman into coming only
to them and trashing all other options as *scare* tactics.. So Canuk, if
you shake your head a bit you will see that Planned Abortionhood is
doing exactly what you accuse Anti-Abortion fundys are doing, they are
just much better funded...

Like I said, I had the terrible opportunity to help a friend and
accompany her to the abortion mill, and they had only one option even
when she asked about adoption or parenting, they went into the same
hyperbole as you do here. She left with here obligatory appointment to
have an abortion, and scars that haunt here now, 40 years later...



Crisis pregnancy centers are anti-abortion centers, moron. The language
on the PP site is neutral, offers options, suggests bringing a confidant
with you and warns you about anti-abortion clinics. Straightforward.

Obviously, your friend took the wrong confidant with her 40 years ago.
