Of course. Some morons don't get protected because you can always kill a baby and they do it without any regrets. Multiple times. Sad that you in the West are such immoral.

I've never been pregnant, don't plan to get pregnant and would never want to ever have to make this decision but I imagine termination of pregnancy is really hard. We shouldn't judge. You can have personal opinions but don't make others feel bad. We don't know why someone terminates and it's not a black and white scenario either. Free contraceptives to all, mandatory comprehensive sex education, better wages and employment stability, free childcare, lower cost of living and universal healthcare and more paid parental leave are going to be significantly more helpful in reducing abortion rates rather than just shaming people that get them anyway. Regardless of opinion, termination of pregnancy should always be safe and legal. By making it not so, you remove the option of a safe abortion and people go to great lengths to get them illegally. I live in a country where it's completely legal and available to those that seek it. I certainly don't like to think about the idea of termination but I do support people having that decision accessible to them.
The joys of posting this stuff Anon, it does not say what country you are in.
Have a look at your country, county, state etc and see how many people are in the foster / care system.
Now have you kids?
if not is it not selfish that you personally have not adopted a child.
If you have kids, it’s obviously also selfish that you have not adopted another child.
If you have kids, why did you as a couple not adopt a child from the care system, surely that’s selfish as you knew there care system in your country is struggling.I won't say why someone chooses to do it the first time is selfish or not, we never know their reasons. If they are using it as a form of birth control, then yes. I say that is selfish, those women who have had multiple abortions cause they are too lazy to get a IUD or use BC or make him wear a condom, etc...
Truth is though, most do not use it repeatedly over and over as a form of birth control.
I understand what you are saying though, there is a huge waiting list, give or take of 2 to 3 years in the US to adopt newborns. No one is ever forced to raise a child they do not want.There is nothing new under the Sun as the Old Testament tribes and people groups killed there babies too…as offering to their god
-Is there any other explanation except we are a fallen, sinful, and totally depraved people group focused totally on what’s best for Self in this world.-that we are our own god…Self is god.
-Without apology and in the name of personal liberty, boy/girl create life, torture life, and kill life. There are numerous cases, even after baby was aborted, where baby continued to thrive/live. And these reports are from nurses in abortion clinics…mostly former abortive staff members.
-Personal choice is secondary to murder. Because one doesn’t like their situation or Person DOES NOT GIVE ONE CIVIL LIBERTY TO KILL‼️
/we all now innately given an intelligently designed Morality that abortion is wrong. Murder is wrong no matter how you want to classify so that one can do or support abortion.I don’t give two shits if a woman aborts simply cuz she doesn’t want a kid. It doesn’t affect you. Everytime a woman gets an abortion do you know? No. Because why? You don’t know them. Doesn’t affect you.
yea lots of stupid selfish young girls in our generation. i blame bad parenting. no moral education. all "me me me" all the time
Because there are enough children in the foster care system that already need to be adopted, then don't need more.. That can't even keep the kids that are already in the system safe.
One could argue that it is selfish not to adopt...Less than 1% of abortions have anything to do with the "rape and incest" argument, at least in the United States; it is almost ENTIRELY about irresponsibility and selfishness.
Yup.
I notice too that a lot of pro-abortion people will try to remark that being pregnant is some dangerous condition, like as if we're in the 1800's or something.Planned Parenthood disguising themselves in an ice cream truck (complete with ice cream truck music).
There’s over 400k kids in foster care. How bout you worry about them instead of judging someone for doing what they feel is right for themselves.
Probably because pregnancy and childbirth is difficult and giving a child up for adoption isn’t nearly as easy as people try to make it seem.
We are over 8billion humans, and you call people not having kids selfish? isn't it the opposite? We keep overpopulating this world. Now that sounds selfish to me. Logical speaking.
Does it honestly matter? Those who are against abortions will think any reason is selfish. They can do what they like for whatever reason.

Then why not adopt the hundreds of thousands of kids still in foster care or adoption agencies who want a loving home first or do we stop caring once they are no longer babies?
No, any reason is valid. Because it is her choice. This world abuses children so much, still considers abortion a crime. Stop the hipocresy
Depends on how many women have abortions for unselfish reasons 🤷♂️
Horseshit. There are tons of kids in foster care waiting to be adopted.
If anything too many people are having kids for the wrong reasons. There are thousands of kids in adoption agencies waiting.
no. they can have an abortion if that's what they want.
