Stotland's Comments on abortion to APA http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/118575.php

APA Position Paper on abortion http://www.psych.org/Departments/EDU/Library/APAOfficialDocumentsandRelated/PositionStatements/197703.aspx

Curiously, the APA position states "freedom to act to interrupt pregnancy must be considered a mental health imperative with major social and mental health implications." Does this not translate to "abortion must be considered a mental health imperative with major social and mental health implications."??
