For instance, many assume or believe that abortion is primarily a teenage problem, others believe or assume that it is mostly a dilemma in inner city schools and urban or ethnic communities.
But the facts reveal:
76% abortions are performed on those over 20 years old. It's not primarily a teenage issue.
64% are with white women it's not an ethnic or inner city stereotype.
49% are performed on women who have ...
