[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Help me understand.

I am a middle class 30 year old married woman. I am pro-life but believe in abortion for extreme circumstances such as rape, health of the mother being in danger and possibly fetus abnormalities. I pray and wish to never have to make this horrible decision in my life.

As such, I do not understand why this is such a widespread issue. For most everyday people...they will not have to hopefully deal with it. We don;t all want to abort as a plan B now do we?[/quote]

It is personal because it is my life and my body. People think they know better than I do wrt my own body and life.  The choice to have children is a personal choice.  The choice to have or not have a child is one that a woman should make with consultation with her partner and her doctor.

I am pro-choice.  I have two children from two pregnancies.  I needed clomid to ovulate so I could get pregnant with my first child.  When that did not work for the second, I chose to stop trying because the next level of drugs would produce many eggs and I did not want to do selective reduction if more than 2 attached. I was also opposed to IVF for the same reason.  For me, that was my line and frankly it surprised me.  I ended up spontaneously ovulating later and became pregnant with my second child.  It was my first spontaneous ovulation in 5 years.  A welcome planned for surprise.  He is now 17 and graduating from HS in June.

I don't think the state should interfere with that decision that so personally affects me and my life.  It is a personal decision. [/quote]
