adption works just fine thank u

however giving birth is extremely dangerous for humans, and is very expensive. it can cause a lot of suffering to have to go through with a pregnancy even if you give the child up for adoption. Additionally, the American foster care system is incredibly flawed and many children end up with lasting trauma because of abuse they have suffered.

They had their choice when they chose to have sex. Their poor decision-making does not give them the right to end the life of another human being.

It's not about choosing to kill a child over experiencing trauma. It's about giving the pregnant person the autonomy to make a decision about their body and life circumstances. For instance, consider a situation where someone is living in extreme poverty and cannot afford to raise a child. In this case, continuing the pregnancy may perpetuate a cycle of poverty and suffering for both the parent and the child.

Instead of focusing on a black-and-white view, we should aim to find a common ground and work towards bettering social conditions, access to education, and healthcare, which would help decrease the number of unintended pregnancies and the demand for abortions. What are your thoughts on addressing these social issues as a way to reduce abortion rates?

If you need money, there's a pro-life line a million people long willing to give you what you need, if it means saving a baby's life.
