i was reading some people's post mostly vf's and a couple of others. Vfs main argument seems to be this, abortion is better then forcing a child to A) live a potential abusive life
B) get trapped in an adoption system for a number of years(i think he said 5 years)
So there seems to be 3 options available for a a teen parent who knows they can't raise their child properly.
1) abortion
2) adoption
3) try to do the best they can and raise the child
Vf chooses abortion because he belives that more often than naught option 3 results in an abusive environment for the child resulting in the child that may become abusive as well. Demographics prove this.
Vf believes that the adoption system also causes pain/unwanted stress to the child.
So his conclusion is that abortion is the best option.
My point is this you seem to believe in option one being the best because under the current system option 2 is well crappy. It seems better to me that we should make the adoption system better, quicker, safer for the child.
Let's assume that the adoption process took roughly one year to go through, and had good results in finding parents who aren't abusive and can and WILL provide a good environment. Under these circumstances how can you say yes to abortion?
Also i noticed in your first post that you said something about how the federal law prohibits 2nd tri mester abortions but allows first tri mester abortions. I'm not sure if you are aware of this or not but if you plot out the logic paths of that post as in a format like this:
Conclusion
Premise1
sub premise1
etc
There is an implied premise that would be something like this"Because the federal law allows 1st tri mester abortions it's ok to do 1st tri mester abortions"
Someone could through a counter argument about how in the past federal laws or any laws of past civilizations could be unjust. there point would be that just because it is a federal law does not mean it is right or "just"
I was just informing you about the implied premise not saying the premise is good/bad/right/wrong
