    I’d like to see how many people who have abortions later on choose to have a child. I think the “what if” logic for not having an abortions should also be applied to when having an abortion.

      Choosing to have a child later on generally has fewer negative consequences than unchoosing a child you have already had.

        Many abortions are also due to miscarriages, a child is wanted but that pregnancy was not viable, while later ones are.

        Which is why even discussing the idea of these nonsense data points is useless.

        Right. People use the “what if” as an excuse to ban abortions. But they don’t realize their logic can and should be used both ways.

      more than you’d think, i’m guessing.

      anyway, what’s it to you? if someone has an abortion and never chooses to have a child, why does that matter to anyone else?
