When pregnancy is the problem, adoption doesn't solve anything.
I see what you did there, using the word "innocent" to make the woman seem less so. What do you know about the reasons women get abortions? Who are you to judge them less innocent? The "pro-life" political movement is about making life unsafe for women, not making it safer for children.
Please tell me how removing access to prenatal care and government assistance for young children is "pro-life."
Please explain how an unwanted child growing up in poverty and abuse is somehow more "pro-life" than an abortion done before the fetal nervous system has developed enough to recognize its own existence?
Please tell me how it's "pro-life" to force little girls to grow up in a world in which they could at any moment have their futures stolen from them by a rapist? How is it "pro-life" to damn women to poverty? To force them to risk their lives giving birth to the living reminder that their bodies were violated? To remember forever that they have a child out there somewhere who might come looking for them, only to remind them again of the trauma they endured?
