On the contrary, she is family oriented and wants to marry and have children one day. So we are primarily considering lifestyle, culture, and economy rather than focusing on abortion availability. [/quote]
You understand that anything can happen during a pregnancy such that it becomes a danger to her health, right?  [/quote]

Yes. And I also understand that Florida allows for abortions in situations that endanger the life of mom or baby.

And also, you have to consider your personal situation when you make choices.  Not only your financial circumstances, but also your goals and moral stances. We are more interested in birth than abortion. I wouldn't interfere with my daughter getting an abortion, but I don't consider abortion to be a foremost consideration, and in fact, I would be much more open to buying my daughter a house and hiring a nanny for her vs encouraging abortion.

Furthermore, I find it odd that blue states are so incredibly fixated on ensuring that young women are able to abort under any circumstances, and are less focused on promoting values and lifestyles that tend to lead to happiness. I want my kid to be happy. Statistically, she's more likely to be happy as a married mom with conservative values. Yes, there are downsides to red states, and to Florida, but looking at the totality of circumstances, she's better off there than in a blue state.

Here's my citations:

 :lol:  :lol:  omg.. you reference an opinion piece from an utlra right wing "news" source like Washington Examiner?

I'm from a conservative family and culture. I went to church most of my life.  I don't necessarily think married women are happier.  I am glad that women have choices.

Yes, women should be able to choose to abort under any circumstances because it's their bodies.  If you are not going to help women take care of the children because those women cannot take care of the babies, then you have no say in whether she has her baby or not.  Mind your own business. Government should stay out of people's health choices and personal lives, right?

You're just a forced birther and don't really care about babies.[/quote]

It's incredibly important to you that babies are aborted. I don't agree. In fact, we have a baby shortage in this country, and it will harm us economically in the near future. So I tend to be more interested in policies that incentivize birth. You disagree. There are states for people like you, and states for people like me. Once upon a time, the left was tolerant of different perspectives-- back when I was a liberal. [/quote]

We don't have a baby shortage. Well I suppose if you are only considering white babies. Is THAT what you are trying to say?[/quote]

Birth rate statistics don't break it out by race. We have one birth rate. And it is too small for us to be able to fund the government the way we like to. We need to be able to fund our defense, take care of our vulnerable, etc, and that only works when we have enough working age people alive to fund it. [/quote]
