Why is drinking, smoking, and drugs while pregnant so discouraged but abortion is so accepted?

Maybe they're are trying to kill their baby another way?

Realistically, all of those things can (and do) happen during a pregnancy.
Responsible people who want a child, desist with the drinking/smoking/drugs.
Many irresponsible people look at abortion as a favorite form of birth control.

I know that accidents can happen (the pill isn't 100% and condoms do indeed break), so I think abortion should be available, but not after the first trimester.

In an incredibly unpopular point of view, I think if you can't stand the thought of abortion, you shouldn't have one. If you want one, go ahead, but don't ask me to pay for it.
