    A child could push a family into poverty and devastate siblings’ futures.

    A child can also be put up for adoption btw.

      Which often means shoving them into massively underfunded institutions, that are full of corruption and abuse, making it a less than ideal alternative.

        Nah I’m ok. If she wanted an abortion she should have gotten one in the 20 weeks where she’s legally allowed to. Doesn’t seem like a hard thing to do.
