How will you respond?
What will be an ideal response?

as soon as possible. Likewise, risks associated with abortion increase with increasing gestational
age, so it is important to decide as quickly as possible. She should make certain she has given this
important issue sufficient consideration. Make certain she has someone to confide in after the visit.
This person may be a friend, family member, counselor, or clergy.
