California teen Sylvie Richards believes her mother is “helping people” when she travels to Oklahoma to abort unborn babies.
This week, the 17-year-old defended her mother’s abortion work in an essay at Teen Vogue. But Richards honestly seemed confused about why pro-life advocates want to ban abortions, likely because her mother hid from her the truth.
“As I try to rationalize [pro-lifers’] thought processes, searching for logic in their misinformed judgments, I draw a blank,” Richards wrote. “Throughout my entire life, when my mom isn’t sitting at the dinner table or finally letting herself relax on a family vacation (a rare occurrence), she has always been doing something to help others.”
Her mother is a California abortionist who recently began traveling to Oklahoma to abort unborn babies there. Oklahoma has seen an increase in pregnant mothers coming from Texas to abort their unborn babies after Texas banned abortions on unborn babies with beating hearts last fall.
Driving to school recently, she said her “heart clenched” when she heard a report about Oklahoma passing an abortion ban. Abortionists who abort unborn babies in violation of the law could face up to 10 years in prison or fines of $100,000.
Richards said she cannot understand why pro-life advocates want to punish her mother for doing abortions. She seemed to think that if pro-lifers simply would understand that her mother is a good person, that they would not pass laws like those in Texas and Oklahoma.
“These people don’t know my mom, and it’s likely they don’t know any other abortion provider,” she continued. “Yet, they feel confident enough in their perceptions that they attempt to threaten their livelihoods, and sometimes their lives.”

Sure, because being an abortionist is no different from being an interior decorator, doncha know? Why are you meanies threatening my mom’s livelihood, says the high school student.
I do feel sorry for Sylvie and how misled she is. We all want to believe the best about our parents. I also feel sorry for Rolf Mengele. His father was the decorated “Angel” of Death, Dr. Josef Mengele of the extermination camp at Auschwitz, Poland. Matthew Ridgway never believed his father, Gary Ridgway, was the Green River Killer, thinking, “He’s just one of the guys that happened to be one place, and you know, he’s my dad. He didn’t do it, you know.” Katya – daughter of Mikhail Popkov, known as the Werewolf and allegedly responsible for the deaths of 81 people – believes her father is innocent. Katya remembers an ideal childhood and feels the father she knew could not be responsible for so many murders: “I do not believe any of this. I always felt myself as ‘Daddy’s girl.’ For 25 years we were together, hand in hand. We walked together, rode bikes, went to the shops, and he met me from school.” It’s difficult to not feel sorry for the children of serial killers and mass murderers, as we should. Pray for the conversion of abortionists, as happened with Abby Johnson, Bernard Nathanson and many others.
Silvie: Your Mother would have aborted you, without a thought, had she viewed you as an inconvenience to her.
Think about it.
This is the same kind of process that Nazis used on children, convincing them of things that are abhorrent and disgusting are actually “helping people”. The Japanese helped the Chinese control population during their invasion of China and Putin is helping Ukraine come to its senses and do what he, the “good person” tells them to do. Right now gang members are helping people realize that fentanyl will make them feel better too.
“These people don’t know my mom, and it’s likely they don’t know any other abortion provider,” yeah we may not them but we know the end result of their actions.
Abortion stops a beating heart.
Unless the heart hasn’t developed yet.
What’s so disturbing is that her essay appeared in a Teen magazine. The propaganda and brainwashing never stops. This poor girl needs some serious counseling. Does she have a father living in the house?
I went to school with her, and let me say, these schools indoctrinate young minds at a young age.
