[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you respond all the nut jobs on Facebook saying that ectopic pregnancies are not abortion and they will adopt all of the babies?. [/quote] The treatment for ectopic pregnancy is abortion. Several hundred thousand children in foster care say otherwise. [/quote] They're pulling quotes directly off of planned Parenthood that says it's not though[/quote] As PP said, one single PP page. Why not ACOG? Why not a standard medical textbook? The cherry-picking is ripe.[/quote] “The only moral abortion is my abortion.” For those who haven’t read this piece (it’s from 2000 so there’s a good chance that you have), it’s a collection of stories from doctors about all the forced birthers who have gotten abortions. It’s worth a read: https://joycearthur.com/abortion/the-only-moral-abortion-is-my-abortion/ Statistically speaking, most of the people on this very thread who have posted against abortion have had one or paid for one. Whether or not they want to credit those abortions for how great their life is another thing, but they the abortion they needed. [twitter]https://twitter.com/notmollyorsilly/status/1542257249074249728?cxt=HHwWgIC8tf-ymecqAAAA[/twitter][/quote] I literally know people like this. It's disgusting. It's the typical Republican mindset of, I got mine F you. [/quote] WOW— this hypocrisy is beyond belief. I am the exact opposite. I probably could not go through with an abortion except if it was born if rape/ incest/ DV. I am quite religious for myself although appreciate many are not, and for good reasons. However, I strongly support women’s right to the make choices for themselves. Honoring the sanctity of life involves science-based reproductive health services. Rates of abortion are much lower in places that have liberal abortion laws, good reproductive health services that help women and men to plan, if and when, they are ready to care for children. We need to respect the vital roles that medical reproductive health service providers Play in keeping women and babies healthy. That includes those who perform abortions as well as OB GYNs/ nurses/ support team staff. It is i terrible that they live in fear for their lives and professional standing in some states. Maternal death rates are also much lower in places with liberal abortion laws. The maternal death rates among women of color in US are already very high. Adoption will not solve all problems and will create new ones. We have both biological and adopted children and in our experience, meeting the needs of sooted children is way more complicated. All the usual problems on top of identity issues/ fears of abandonment/ longing for biological family. There is no perfect way to address all this but we Muddle through. Some never do and I personally know of failed adoptions that have hurt adoptees well into middle age Some women with existing children cannot even afford to stay pregnant and feed and shelter their existing children. Other women may never bond with children born of rape/ incest or DV and thus those babies will likely experience much deprivation of love and stability. It is shocking to me that some women who have needed abortions themselves would happily deny that option to other women in need. I hope for the sake of so many women and children that federal right to choose protections are codified somehow. [/quote]
