    Let me fix this for you: "CNN writer has compassion for people who have mothers who abandoned them or abused them or just were unable to love them." And nobody "forced" me to apologize. I don't need to be forced to be decent to people.

    Ugh! I unintentionally implied in my CNN column that I think *all* mothers want their children to be happy. I do think that most do, but not all do. There are mothers who can't love & aren't concerned with their children's happiness, an incredibly painful reality. I'm so sorry.

    Nobody said my 15 year old niece is having sex--though if she was that would not be a reason for the state to force her to give birth. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud though so people can see what this is about.
