Unwanted babies
I’m not a supporter of abortions, but I do believe that a woman and her family should have dominion over her body. This should not be a governmental function.
However, I understand the passion of those who adamantly oppose abortions. But if they believe they have the right to demand that an unwanted baby be delivered, then they should also provide the support mechanism for its adoption, state care orphanages or whatever.
Should alternatives to the mandatory raising of an unwanted baby by reluctant parents be available, it might dramatically reduce the need to consider abortion.
