In “A Cool Podcast by Bursucu,” Oana Zăvoranu (romanian actress and TV presenter, 51 years old) casually and enthusiastically shared how, at six and a half years old, she first convinced her father, and later, together with him, her mother to have an abortion. The segment about abortion can be watched at 01:10:00. Here is a transcript that recounts the events, without part of Oana Zăvoranu’s conversation with Adrian Cristea:
Oana Zăvoranu: Every year, they [my parents], in December, would go abroad. We had everything, they would travel by car, bringing things back. And when I was six years old, I found out that my mother was pregnant. Now, you might say, “OK. You were happy!” No, it was a big tragedy. Panic! My mother was just mine, no matter how much she annoyed me or scolded me, she was just mine. My father was my father. And I had an earnest conversation with my father at the table and said to him: “I heard that mom is pregnant.”
My father, gently, immediately blinked: “Dear, aren’t you happy? You’ll be alone, you’ll have a brother or a sister.” What do you think I said? “Because you’re going abroad [to travel], here in Romania they can’t do curettage, I know you have a friend in Germany because in Romania they can’t do curettages, you have a friend in Munich, a furrier, where you get mom’s furs, and he has some connections, he can solve the problem. Here’s the problem. I always make lists for Christmas […] it’s top of my list: when you come back, I want it to be like it was a month and a half ago, two months ago because I understand she’s already two months pregnant.”
My father looked at me and said: “You’re a good girl. Let’s understand each other. It will be a girl, a boy, it will be cute, we’ll die, me and your mom, but you have someone there.” What do you think I said? “Dad, if the situation is not resolved, no problem, but when you leave, I might put the pillow over my eyes.” My father widened his eyes: “Oh my God, dear, is this thought so bad for you?” I said: “Do you want me to suffocate?” [I was] A little manipulative. “Do you want me to suffocate? Do you want me to cry until I die?” My father: “I’ve never seen you like this. Consider it solved.”
From that moment on, I didn’t look at my mother anymore. I didn’t look at my mother. My mother didn’t know about the conversation I had with my father. They left abroad. My mother said: “Aren’t you going to kiss me?” “No, I’m sleepy,” I pretended to sleep. They arrived in Vienna. They called me from every city, from each country. “Give me dad.” “When are you going to Germany?” “Tomorrow.” They arrived in Germany. My dad: “I talked to Mauriciu and we’re going to solve it like you talked about.” My father called me the next day and said: “Girl, it’s solved.” I said: “Put mom on the phone.” “Now I love you because you’re again only my mom.” And everything went back to normal. She came home, I kissed her, and I said: “Mom, I missed you.”
For supporters of abortion, any reason is enough—even the selfishness of a child who wants to be the only one to their parents. But at least they could admit that in the majority of cases, it’s not the woman who chooses abortion. Oana Zăvoranu doesn’t say it explicitly, but it’s implied that her mother wasn’t thinking about abortion, and she calculated that she couldn’t convince her mother to abort, but she could get this through her father.
A real statistic about the causes of abortion, in this case, would show that the reality is that it wasn’t the woman who decided, but the daughter and her husband. After the abortion, Oana Zăvoranu considered that she had fulfilled her desire to be the only child to her parents, and “everything went back to normal.” Actually, she was the only living child to her parents, and from then on, her mother became the mother of both a living child and a child lost through abortion. The same for her father, and the same for her: she has a brother or sister whose abortion she had determined.
Another sad story of how selfishness leads to the loss of innocent life.
