(LIFENEWS) – A happily-married, financially-stable mom is justified in ending the life of her unborn baby, according to one advice columnist.
Danny M. Lavery runs Slate's advice column, "Dear Prudence," which answers readers' questions "about relationships at home, work, and beyond." This includes relationships in relation to abortion, as Lavery recently responded to the question "Should I Abort My Pregnancy and Tell My Husband I Miscarried?" in his column published on March 13. His answer, quickly summarized, seemed to be, "Yes, yes, you may."
To Lavery, the question wasn't whether or not she should abort her "pregnancy." His answer largely assumed she should – or would. Instead, the question for him to answer was whether or not she should tell the father, her husband.
