I find this hilarious because literally all pregnancies can cause health problems so they’re essentially saying the same thing lol

People are way too accustomed to treating pregnancy like it’s a totally seamless thing that women just go through

Why does the commenter in the screenshot want kids to have moms who didn’t even want them to begin with as a punishment for them not being on birth control (or even their birth control failing)?

The maternal mortality rate is too damn high for people to forget that women and children die during childbirth all the time

I believe abortions should only be done if the moms life is a risk (every pregnancy puts the moms life at risk)

Abortion reduction bill: - Universal childcare - Healthy food guaranteed access - Housing guaranteed access - Science based sex ed - Universal healthcare (with included contraceptives) - Adequate funding for our public schools and living wages for our teachers

Pregnancy is literally a health condition. People treat it way too casually

If they take away abortions, it will take away birth control too

Abortions should be unregulated through the second trimester but once you have reached the third, you have had plenty of time to figure out whether you want it or not. Once in third it should be taken as a case-by-case basis of whether or not it is needed or worth it. But first trimester or early second trimester or 13-18 weeks imo should be perfectly legal for abortions. Brain activity begins in the third trimester, hence going case by case.

I think they are referring to cases where there are abnormal health risks compared to other pregnancies.

They’re way too accustomed to thinking that there are no problems with giving birth as well.

Literally, my mom had what most people would consider a “healthy pregnancy” but the minute she gave birth? Worst complications she’s ever had

Good point. Abortion shouldn’t be treated as birth control but I’d definitely rather Kids not be born to parents that hate or don’t truly want them. That’s how you get cases like Gabriel Fernandez and Teresa Knorr. Not saying those kids didn’t deserve a life at all, but they 100% deserved better parents.

This way both sides are appeased. People have the freedom to abortions early on but by the time there is a properly developing baby, then the side that doesn’t want abortions is made happy because late term abortions are on the more odd side- coming from somebody who supports bodily autonomy and freedom

And don’t forget, the people that argue with this clearly do not actually understand government and believe one side HAS to win all the time, when government need to be an equal match otherwise it will crumble. This appeases both sides wants and would not be something that either side would then need to upheave and try to change with every round of new presidency or new power. We need to stop making blanket this or that and return to in the middle, good and humane decisions that don’t get undone

Who is trying to abort in the third term unless it’s an extreme thing in their PRIVATE life- like the baby will die, the mother will die, the baby is already dead. Healthcare is and should always be a private matter.

Nobody is getting a third trimester abortion for funsies. By the time they’ve reached their third trimester, they’ve already had gender reveals, decorated a nursery, picked out names and started planning a baby shower. Everyone in their family knows. Birth plans and maternity/paternity leave are being finalized. Third trimester “abortions” are really just a way of removing a stillborn fetus
