What are your true thoughts on abortion?

I believe all children are a gift

I believe we should give voice to the most defenseless and most innocent

I believe we should provide better relief for single moms (we do not have to make everything so difficult)

I believe destiny exists for an unborn child, as well as for a mother ... but neither owns the destiny of the other.

I believe mothers are special

I believe in the Lord being the giver of life

I believe society should not exploit young mothers

I believe the lost of children is tragic

I stand for young mothers and children

@questionWeaver [quote]I believe we should provide better relief for single moms (we do not have to make everything so difficult)[/quote] Actually we have Welfare already for the single and struggling so no need for more help in my opinion! [quote]I believe mothers are special[/quote] I believe [b]ALL[/b] people are special not just mothers! They don't get to have that status just because they had sex and was able to conceive and carry a baby! Some people can give birth but it takes more than giving birth to truly be a responsible parent![quote]I believe society should not exploit young mothers[/quote] They don't.
@LovelyLadybug I have no issue with your beliefs

@questionWeaver to your many wonderful points, I've often wondered if we've aborted the person that was supposed to discover the cure for cancer
@fvckit a sad thought indeed
@LovelyLadybug the unfortunate thing, (and I'm speaking from nkt being in America, and I'm assuming similar issues can happen in the social system), is that - people easily fall through the cracks.
Welfare doesn't always work, welfare can be complicated, and looking after a child is time consuming .
Welfare can also be demeaning.
You would be surprised to find so many struggle just to even get some kind of help.
And then there are the abused mothers, who have to try and get help while dealing with the chaos of trauma, WHILE looking after their kids.

Its a nightmare!

Our society is a society broken for the truly needy .

@BoobooSnafu I've seen a lot of families coming by the Welfare office. I know this from experience because I was (and still am) on some kind of government help. You'll be surprised that a lot of people aren't ashamed of asking for help when they are in true need and desperate. I've seen it! Nothing wrong with doing that in my opinion, it's when it gets abused that it becomes a problem!
@LovelyLadybug yeah.

And when its abused, it makes it harder for those in need to access it.

Such a shame .
Good ideas ...but sometimes badly executed .
