You don't know their background, story, current living situation, or anything. If someone who was a rape victim got pregnant and was not in the right place for a baby, what would happen to it. You would bring this poor thing in the world, put it in the system, and then what? They grow up with mental health issues, health issues, and unhappy.

The foster care system is continuously evolving and improving. Why take an innocent life and not even allow them a chance to thrive?

Because, frankly, they don't matter. The rights of the mother over the use of her own body comes before the rights of any person that is using her body without her consent, even a baby. What the fetus "wants" doesn't matter in the slightest so long as it is using someone else's body.

Everyone should be given the choice to their body and the life they are bringing into this world. Not everyone wants a child nor is everyone given the choice because of things like rape. It is important to allow people to make their own decisions regarding the future of not just themselves but a possible child. If they were not given this choice, these children would most likely grow up in an awful environment and develop significant problems.

Absolutely agree with this comment. Is the life of the child so important that you're willing to let them be miserable? The child isn't even born yet, there is no soul or anything, it's not murder, it's healthcare. Important healthcare that is especially needed for a mother's physical and mental health.

Yes, I think pro choice is the way to go because it doesnt cross religious boundaries if you dont want it to, but if you are forcing other when you dont know their situation to keep the baby could lead to more trouble.
