Imagine no Sean
Paul McCartney has always been my favorite Beatle. Who knew John Lennon, posthumously, would compete?
Yoko Ono, though… stiill crazy after all these years.
In a BBC interview earlier this week, Ono revealed a surprisingly burqa’d attitude when she said she would have aborted son Sean had John not wanted the “burden” (although if more women were honest, they would concur).
Flash forward, and Yoko said John would have escaped murder had he not insisted on going home to see Sean, then five, rather than go to dinner.
I’m glad, of course, Ono didn’t abort, but is she now trying to bury Sean psychologically? The article:
John Lennon stopped wife Yoko Ono from aborting their only son Sean.
Ono was unsure if she should keep the unborn child because it was conceived shortly after the couple were reunited after splitting up for 18 months in the early 70s.
She told BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs: “I know it sounds strange now but I thought, well, I should let John decide whether to keep it or not.

“We’d just got back together and I became pregnant very soon, and I didn’t know if it was the right moment to have a child because maybe he didn’t want it. I didn’t want to burden him with something he didn’t want.
“He said, ‘Of course we are going to keep it’, and he was really upset with my remark.”
Ono, who married Lennon in 1969, gave birth to Sean in 1975.
Lennon took a five-year career break to help raise Sean and virtually stopped playing the guitar and creating music.
Lennon, who was murdered by crazed fan Mark Chapman in New York in December 1980, was desperate to get home to see Sean on the night of his death.
Ono, 74, revealed: “I said, ‘Shall we go out and have dinner before we go home.’ John was saying he wanted to go home before Sean went to sleep. He was concerned about that. This is the last thing he said, that he wanted to see Sean.”



Off topic but-
The founder of PP, Margaret Sanger, was pro-life.
“To each group we explained what contraception was; that abortion was the wrong way
Tell that to planned parenthood!
That was an awesome story.
Jess, you’d be surprised at how many people are indeed aware of that fact.
Beatles, may be the best band ever…..
Good for John, I remember the night he was killed.
awwww
Jess, Sanger made some anti-abortion public statements in order to quell concerns about her new organization.
Further investigation reveals that she was lying through her teeth. It was pure PR. Kinda like when Warren Hern insists that there’s no need to regulate abortion because there are no bad doctors — what he says in public — when in NAF meetings he’s always chewing his fellows out for quackery.
Awww, Jill, approve my comments on the Rolling Stone thing!! :)
