What if the mother is not ready to take on the care of the child? Will we bring another unloved thing into this world? As a victim of child abuse, growing up being unloved and scorned for the simple feat of existing was something that has scarred me for the rest of my life. I don't want that to happen to anyone else - and plus, if the abortion happens early on, the child has never opened their eyes or experienced life. I think the people who are going to give birth to a child have full right to decide if they want it or not. Sometimes, the circumstances just aren't right. Also, you have to take into account the idea of rape - should a woman be forced to carry the child of a man who raped her? There's a lot of situations and overall, in general, the person who gives birth should be allowed to make the final call.

ADOPTION. THERE ARE PEOPLE WANTING CHILDREN WHO CAN'T HAVE THEM. FIND SOMEONE. There will always be women in the church who will want another child to take care of. People can give that human life a chance to have a good life.
The adoption process itself can be lengthy, costly, and emotionally draining. Furthermore, not all children who are put up for adoption find homes. According to the AFCARS Report, there were over 122,000 children waiting to be adopted in the United States in 2019. These children spend an average of 3 years in foster care, often moving multiple times.

No child should ever grow up feeling unloved or unwanted. However, I believe there are alternatives to abortion such as adoption and foster care systems. These options can provide the child a chance to experience love and care in a different family setting.

Any position that isn't letting the woman carring the fetus make her own decision and have the services to enact that decision is opresssion.

My best counter argument to the Pro-Life position on Abortion is what if a girl is Sexually assault and gets pregnant. She should be alound to get an abortion.

You can still do with your body as you wish but you have no say in what someone else choses to do with their body.

People People who who know they can’t take care of children should Have the right to have an abortion
@9LXMX6K12mos12MO
Somebody else's sexual life is none of the state or public's concern and everybody has the right to bodily autonomy so the fact that this is even a question is a clear reflection of our society. An abortion is killing a zygote and most people picture a baby but in reality is a loose clump of cells.
@9FTX86H2yrs2Y
The pro choice emphasizes a woman’s right to make the choice to have a baby or not. If a woman decides to have an abortion it could be for many resins such as, she may be unable to care for a child , I does not want to put her child y though the foster system. Another reason could be because it could be unsafe for the woman to give birth.
@9FS7WXH2yrs2Y
I don't think it's fair that anybody besides the women in the position of having to make the decision on whether or not to get an abortion should concern anybody else but them.
@9FRKYNN2yrs2Y
People should be able to choose for themselves. If you don't like abortions don't get one, but don't prevent those who want or need it from getting them.
@B3MN52G 1mo1MO
Banning abortion does not stop abortion it just creates unsafe abortions that pose both a risk to the fetus and the mother
@9GQ9V7T1yr1Y
How would you like it if you have to give birth against your will? Giving birth is the second most painful thing in the world, second to burning alive. You cannot force another person to allow another person to use thier body to stay alive. How would you like it if I was dieing and they forced you to give me a kidney because they were out of them because we'd both be alive after and that's all that matters?
@9FVH3DJ2yrs2Y
Personally I think if both of the people responsible for the baby discuss what they want to do and if they both come to the agreement that they would like to have an abortion I see no reason as to why the pair should not be allowed to do so (as long as it was consensual) , although I do think that both people should agree for an abortion if one person is not in favour I do not believe it should happen.
