The experience of being a mother who decides to terminate her pregnancy may indeed be an experience chosen by her before incarnation - but it may not.

I also agree that the spirit who was to animate her child is just fine but a mother - or indeed both parents - may have considerable difficulty understanding and accepting that.

Many here may not understand either.
