[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great! Just make sure she doesn't get pregnant. [/quote]

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,[b] I would be much more open to buying my daughter a house and hiring a nanny for her vs encouraging abortio[/b]n.

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. [b]Statistically, she's more likely to be happy as a married mom with conservative values.[/b] 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.

It sounds like you want your daughter to get her Mrs. Degree, instead of ensuring she has access to quality education and make her own reproductive choices.

You might want to do some further research, beyond right-wing new sources, as single women tend to the best the happiest:

I don't consider being a mother and a wife to be at odds with a quality education, and I find it strange and misogynistic that you do.

And yes, I've stated over and over that I don't look at a college and ask myself, "yes, but how efficiently can the women get abortions?"  This is a bizarre lens through which to view colleges.  [b]Especially when birth control is a thing[/b]. [/quote]

Birth control can fail.
Fetal anomalies incompatible with life are a thing that can happen to anyone.
There are a multitude of conditions that can occur during pregnancy and threaten a woman’s health/life.
Why would I want my DDs to live in a state that may prove a hindrance to receiving appropriate, timely health care?[/quote]
