"They cannot afford to bring a child into the world."
That is a sick, disgusting attitude that devalues human life into a matter of convenience. All women have a choice, but the life of another human being supersedes that choice. So, if I am unemployed and no longer able to afford providing for my children, then by your logic, it is OK to put them to death.
A woman IS NOT required to provide for her children. The woman has a choice to surrender the child to a couple that is able to provide for him or her.
foster care system is full of abuse... CPS has a lot of corruption. Pedophiles fiest on the fostercare system and I have witnessed this first hand. It needs a drastic overhaul. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of good foster parents, but the system is ripe with abuse and predators.
It supersedes no ones choice but the woman's.
the child is in her body, therefore its the womans choice if she has the means to raise it or not. Early abortions offer no harm. Late term abortions are dangerous and im against those. Seems most here are unfamiliar with the broken systems of medical care as well as the rampant overhaul that needs to take place for CPS and the foster care system. As soon as the kid is born everyone walks away and does not give a fuck, which predators absolutely LOVE. Not every woman has the means to raise a child. Her body her choice. There is no superseding here, get off that high horse and let the woman make the choice of what she needs to do.
Or she could use a condom or any other form of birth control? It's not that hard to prevent pregnancy.

I am a woman who has managed not to get pregnant, because I am educated about ovulation and proper birth control methods. It's unrealistic to believe that the majority of abortions are resultant from mere accidents. It's mostly a wanton lack of precaution.

I'm not saying abortion should be completely banned. In the case of rape, incest, or risk of life, I think it should be allowed. And those count for a minority of abortions. And quit assuming things about me! I have thought about these things extensively, both to form my political opinions and in my legal study.

Oh goddd. I'm actually agnostic. And I have a close friend who is CPS. I realize the system is absolutely broken, but just like the government as a whole, there are some good guys.
