I'm pro-choice but not because I'm a woman's right advocate... Basically, if you outlaw abortion it isnt going to stop people from terminating unwanted pregnancies, that's the bottom line.

The middle-class and poor will bear the biggest blunt turning to less safe and perhaps out-right dangerous forms of abortion while the rich will just fly off to another country where is is legal.

The solution to abortion in my opinion is dropping this traditional fundamentalist Christian mentality that preaches abstinence despite studies showing the % of people refraining from sex before marriage is shrinking all the time. We need to drop this puritanical view on sex and start teaching safe sex to our children at a young age and we need to provide low cost birth control to all men and women so that unwanted pregnancy dont occur as frequently.

In the end though abortion is a very tough thing to do... Even if a woman doesnt realize it in the short-term the decision almost always comes back to haunt them sometime later in life... The fact is you are killing a potential child that you would be the mother/father to and anyone who has kids knows that thought, as a parent, is very hard to wrap your mind around...

My heart goes out to the young girls who dont know any better and did what they felt they had to do... It's one of those things you can never undo and it sticks with you for the rest of your life. And Gods knows I'm not a religious person or even a kid person... I think that is why so many people can be so fanatic about being pro-life... But in the end, life isnt always b/w and sometimes you got to make TOUGH decisions... I just sooner see that number of men and women who have to go through that process decrease through early education and cheap and easily accessible b/c.
someuser Reviewed by someuser on . My views on abortion, personal perspective. I am fairly sure I posted this before, but I had to leave and I couldn't check up on it, and I can't remember the post really so I am posting it again. I was suppose to be born with spinal bifeda(sp?). I am told that this is where your spine does not fully connect to your brain. Apparently I had two months before I was to be born, and there was a one in two thousand chance I was going to be born normal. My mom was surrounded by three doctors.
