Here is an excerpt from last year’s winner, Stacia Mendoza:

“Choice. That is a word that the proabortion movement loves to use. It sounds so freeing. One would never estimate the immense pain and guilt that could manifest itself from such “liberty.” Choice seems to put the power in the women. But in reality it’s more like what I learned at my babysitting class. You can give a child two choices: “Instead of jumping on the bed we can go get ice cream or go watch a movie. Which do you choose?” Although the child ultimately gets the choice, you will get what you want no matter what: them to stop jumping on the bed. Choice seems to put the power in the chooser, but in all actuality it has never left the hands of the one who manipulates what is being offered​.”
