    And when it fails? Or when you get raped at fourteen?

    No-one is saying abortion replaces contraceptives. But it HAS to be an option. The alternative is simply unacceptable.

    Your way is how you get a lot of unwanted children sired by the unprepared, irresponsible, young, sick, stupid, impoverished, insane and criminal. At worst, all of those at once, severely derailing the lives of parents and child alike.

    You completely ignore the fact that where an accidental pregnancy occurs, and a happy ending is possible, good parents aren’t going to choose to abort.

    And that by closing that option off for the rest, forcing unprepared parents to commit, you bring a bunch of kids into a existence in all the places where they weren’t wanted and prepared for. That doesn’t end well for anyone, least of all the child.

    And you might wanna double-check who your are voting for, because a lot of “pro-life” lawmakers are also anti-contraceptive.
