I Am Pro Choice

Although I hate the idea of a child being ripped out of its mother's womb, or dissected if it's a late term abortion, I do believe it is the mothers right to take into mind the suitability of the moment for her, psychologically speaking. I don't think economics should be a factor at all, just the psychological health of the mother. But my opinion should never be a benchmark, it's an individual decision of the women carrying the babies, with expert guidance from medical professionals.

Importantly, late term abortions are in almost all cases serious medical interventions where the baby, or the mother will not survive. They are nearly always [b]intended[/b] pregnancies that have gone awry and result in situations where the baby cannot survive outside of the womb, or will die horribly after a short life.

They're serious tragedies, but when politicians try to ban late term abortions they compound the tragedies and make them so much worse.

This is a good article on why one mother really needed a late term abortion, but be forewarned it is really sad.

If you are Pro-choice, then you agree that the woman (and only the woman) can decide. If you think that she should have the baby, regardless of the wishes of the woman, then you're Pro-life.

These two groups seen to have very strong opinions and are reluctant to alter their opinions. But this is a question for the Pro-choice group.

What if a woman decides that she wants an abortion on the day before the baby is due to be delivered? Or maybe she changes her mind while she's being wheeled into the delivery room. Do Pro-choice supporters still support her choice? Does she still have body autonomy? If the doctors tell her that her life may be at risk with an abortion so late in the pregnancy, but she still wants one, do you support her or not?

And if you think that her choice should be taken away from her because she left it "too late" then what arbitrary date in the pregnancy do you decide that you no longer support her choice?

If you are pro-choice, do adopt. Too much chatting, no action. Thousands of children are without parents, scarred, miserable only because parents couldn’t abort. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@bijouxbroussard As a pro-choice myself, I am already aware (but thx). I was highlighting the hypocrisy of people against abortion.
@SW-User Then did you mean “if you are [b]pro-life[/b], do adopt” ? That’s who needs to step up and adopt the unwanted children [b]they’re[/b] insisting be born.

@bijouxbroussard I made a typo
So-called late-term abortions are not legal here, unless the fetus is already dead or the mother’s life is in danger.
