Commitment to Religion
You're a nurse who works at a sexual health clinic when your relative’s partner comes in for a pregnancy test. As soon as she discovers she is pregnant she wants to know about abortion procedures. When you inform her of her options you ask her about her support systems and if she is going to let the father know, to which she replies no. She is adamant that she is going to go through with the abortion on her own, even though your family has strong christian beliefs that view abortion as an abomination.
