The choice isn't really yours, it's a facade

This is the education one can expect in college, not much different then the one our daughter got in her 8th grade health class. Do I see a trend? /sarcasm/

UCLA Counselor Slammed for Telling Pregnant Student to Get Abortion

Los Angeles, CA (LifeNews.com) -- A counselor at the UCLA student health center is coming under fire for advising a pregnant student to have an abortion and telling her the college has no resources available for students keeping their babies. The counselor also encouraged the student to get the state health system to pay for the abortion.

The advice came when freshman Lila Rose posed as a seven week pregnant student and talked with Ann Brooks, nurse practitioner and counselor at the UCLA Health Center.

Rose printed Brooks' remarks in The Advocate, a new UCLA student newspaper which launched its inaugural edition today. She said the counseling was entirely aimed at encouraging an abortion -- thinking that was the only option to help her stay in school.

The student said Brooks also advised her to use Medi-Cal to fund her abortion with taxpayer funds.

"I have a place I can send you where they will get you signed up for Medi-Cal coverage and they just don't ask," the counselor reportedly said.

Brooks allegedly said Rose should have an abortion because of a lack of support for pregnancies on campus and the discomforts of pregnancy.

"Most of the students I talk to terminate their pregnancies," Brooks said, describing the unborn child as "a collection of cells."

She added that Rose could expect "physical difficulties" during pregnancy and the "embarrassment of your classmates" as a pregnant student living in the school dorms.

Brooks said "UCLA doesn't support people who are pregnant and make things easier for them necessarily."

But my most favorite part of this, aside from the fact that this girl was just posing as a pregnant girl is this:

"What about other options? That's the definition of choice," said Rose, who reported the story in the new student newspaper.

Just proof of how diverse and open-minded these pro-choice advocates really are!
