What happens inside a womans body is a womans buisness we have the mental and physical capacity to make our own choices with our bodies and our lives. A bunch of strangers cannot make these intuitive, difficult, emotional, decisions for us.
Unfortunately we have seen this choice, abortion, abused and used as a method of contraception at times, in countries like Canada and Russia for example. What is lacking is access to information on how an abortion may affect someone eg the high risk of triggering bipolar disorder or depression. A true account of possible effects should be available, spiritual, physical, mental.this is the debate we should be having...These women are so vulnerable they havent the experience to know if they would survive the trauma of birth and motherhood. they need real unbiased support and that is all. Advice which is honest,loving, good, realistic and unfearful.We dont eat our young like other animals after all or leave them in the gutter like the 1700's. This support is what humans deserve.Not thunderclap judgements.
I believe it is womens own choice ultimately and not the responsibility of the State as to how they determine the course of their lives, body and soul.
those people who call T.D,s who support abortion murderers and threaten violence need to wake up and look in the mirror. The Cathlic Church
