I think that in a perfect world, there would be no abortions, because every child conceived would be wanted and cared for. This is the ideal. We don't have that. We have a world where many of the same people who are anti-abortion are also anti-birth control, which really makes it seem more like a method of control than anything moral or ethical. We have a world filled with rape and poverty and manipulation and fear and misinformation. I'm rather on the side of Darla -- I find it hard to believe that people think that it's glorious to bring a child into a world so filled with hate and violence. In a world where we cannot feed the children that are already here, I find large families mind-boggling and rather selfish.
I'm anti-abortion. I'd rather never have one and I greatly wish that no one else ever wanted to have one either. But I'm strongly pro-choice
Thanks!
