May 9, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Planned Parenthood took advantage of Mother’s Day to promote the antithesis of empowered motherhood: abortion.

On its Twitter account, the nation’s largest abortion provider celebrated abortion and gender fluidity on the holiday dedicated to honoring mothers and the sacrifices they make for their children:

“Planned Parenthood works every day to promote healthy, planned motherhood all over the world, and to support moms of all ages, races, and walks of life,” the abortion giant posted on Facebook.  “We wish you a Happy Mother's Day!”

According to its own annual report, Planned Parenthood ripped 323,999 children out of their mothers’ wombs during the fiscal year 2014-2015. 

Planned Parenthood’s work promoting “healthy, planned motherhood all over the world” includes supplying to women hormonal birth control that the World Health Organization labels a class 1 carcinogen; killing Tonya Reaves during a botched abortion; and cooperating with China’s coercive one-child policy and failing to condemn forced abortions in the United States.

The article on “gender queer” parenting that Planned Parenthood tweeted highlighted same-sex parenting between a “gender queer person” and her partner.

“Janelle doesn’t identify with the term ‘mom’ and is in the process of figuring out their own gender expression and identity… but what does that all mean when they are the one pregnant with a baby?” the article asked, accidentally acknowledging the humanity of the child in the womb. 

“When I thought about having the second baby, I thought it would be like taking out the trash, someone has to do it and it would be fair in a same-sex relationship,” said Janelle, who lamented how connected to “gender stuff” like breastfeeding pregnancy is. 

For an organization that touts itself as pro-woman and pro-motherhood, Planned Parenthood certainly has a funny way of showing it.
