I mean that would just make sense for any business. If that&#8217;s the one service you offer, that&#8217;s the service you&#8217;re going to try to sell.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Thayer describes how her Planned Parenthood clinic once used a state-sponsored booklet that briefly covered information on abortion, adoption, and prenatal care. However, the booklet contained the scientific statement that &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/40-quotes-from-medical-experts-that-prove-human-life-begins-at-conception\/\">life begins at conception<\/a>.&#8221; Thayer says that when Planned Parenthood management discovered this, they quickly ordered brown paper sacks. From then on, staffers put the booklets inside sacks to hide them from women&#8217;s views. When they talked with a woman, they would tell her she could take the bag or leave it, simply so they could &#8220;check the box&#8221; and tell the state they offered information to women. But, Thayer says, &#8220;we didn&#8217;t really give it to them. 99 percent of the time, they just left it lay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Was there counseling?&#8221; Rose asked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They call it counseling, but it&#8217;s more like a brief presentation of information,&#8221; Thayer explained. She told Rose that actual counseling where women are allowed to talk about their situation and why they think they are making a particular choice is &#8220;more consistent with a pro-life pregnancy center.&#8221; She said that those centers operate very differently from Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n<p>A goal Thayer said, is to put a little bit of information out there and then to go schedule an abortion:\u00a0&#8220;Planned Parenthood is pretty much, you know, gotta get this done, gotta get this figured out, got another client waiting, you know&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;information&#8221; Planned Parenthood offers pregnant women is often false information at that, as<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/what-we-do\/investigations\/medical-misinformation\/\"> a previous Live Action investigation shows<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NxOWyumLufA\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sue Thayer, a former Planned Parenthood manager, admits that most people assume options counseling for pregnant woman will include information on adoption, abortion, parenting, and prenatal care.
