F that. Poverty is poverty.

If you don’t like abortions, then elect people who will help: 
- sex education 
- free/accessible health care 
- free/accessible birth control (incl LARCs) 
- maternity & paternity leave 
- childcare 
- etc.

If you want the baby to live, along with the father and the mother, then quit bitching and actually help the father and mother. [/quote]

Honest Question:

How many of you got abortions because you didn’t have “sex education”?

What percentage of girls/women getting obortions seriously just didn’t know they might get pregnant if they have sex?[/quote]

Honest answer:  A whole lot.  Read:  https://www.researchgate.net/publication/15226785_Contraception_in_The_Netherlands_the_low_abortion_rate_explained[/quote]

Also ... I feel like you can't have it both ways.  You can't claim that getting rid of abortion is going to reduced unplanned pregnancy because women will change their behavior; and then ALSO claim that sex education and knowing how to access birth control has no impact on the unplanned pregnancy rate.  If women "learn" to change their sexual behavior by not having access to abortion; then they also "learn" to prevent pregnancy through sex education and access to birth control.  And obviously, the latter is much more likely to be successful, and less coercive.  The rationale for banning abortion cannot be "teaching women a lesson."  [/quote]
