Monica Snyder, Executive Director of Secular Pro-Life joins Jor-El Godsey to explain what the Turnaway Study is, and what the findings actually reveal. This study gathered data on women who sought an abortion but were denied, and how these women felt about abortion over time.

Notes:
- Abortion advocates have been using this study to promote abortion as a better option for women (citing questions asked about finances, bonding with baby, etc), but their claims are not fully supported by the data in the study.
- The Turnaway Study revealed that 96% of women who were denied an abortion and later gave birth later said that they no longer wished they had sought abortion. The overwhelming majority of women bonded to their children just fine.
