Crashing... going through TTC and being pregnant has made me more pro-choice. My baby was very wanted and very planned. (I spent a LOT of time on this board, lol). She isn't even here yet, and I know I'd move heaven and earth for her. DH is thrilled and supportive and generally a great partner.
But it got me thinking. What happens to the women/couples that aren't ready for the tornado that is pregnancy? That don't have the means to support a baby? (And when I say that, I'm not talking about the individuals or couples that have to postpone buying a house or a car; I mean the ones that are barely scraping by on food stamps and can't afford electric). That can't get prenatal care and/or child care? Yes, birth control is necessary if you don't want to get pregnant, but nothing is foolproof. We don't know everyone's situation. We don't know what the future holds for us. We need to leave the option open, even if we don't agree.
{{steps off soap box}} Sorry, carry on.
ITA  word for word. Who am I to Judge or tell another person what to do with their body when I don't know their circumstances ?
I personally would not have one , but would never stop a woman for whatever her reasons are .
( I am stepping off the box too now )
ITA. until you walk in someone else's shoes you have no idea and i'm glad we have a choice even if there are people out there who abuse it.
