[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When the baby is already viable, you don’t need to “remain” pregnant. You are no longer needed. So why kill the baby?[/quote]

Nobody has an abortion past the point of viability, for the most part.[/quote]
Nobody? Plenty of babies are “terminated” past the point of viability. When so many loving women are infertile, and able to cover all associated costs, it’s anti feminist not to allow a simple adoption. [b]It would cost you nothing. [/b]

It’s so nasty to unnecessarily end the life of your little girl (or boy), just to deny them to survive.[/quote]

Stop lying. It would cost you body autonomy, physical discomfort and pain, time off work/school, possibly social standing, possibly some relationships, possibly your mental health, a few women would lose their future fertility due to complications from a pregnancy that didn’t even yield a child they were going to raise themselves, and most importantly: it would cost some women their lives. There are still women who die in childbirth. There are women who are murdered by sexual partners who don’t want a baby.

I suffer from infertility and I would never want another woman to be coerced into continuing an unwanted pregnancy just so I could benefit from her situation. [b]You don’t speak for “loving women who are infertile.”[/b][/quote]

Also if people are so desperate to adopt how come there's still so many children in foster care who are searching for families? How come the pro-life people haven't adopted them all? I think if you are going to be publicly pro-life and you can be forced to adopt any child that needs a home. [/quote]

There are children ready to be adopted, but not through foster care. Foster care prioritizes the reunification of families.[/quote]

Not true. Initially the goal is reunionification with families but in many cases that is not possible and then the goal can change. In either case there is still a dearth of foster families[/quote]
