Re: anon for obvious reasons

[biohazardgirl]

Yeah, it was really late when I posted last night, so I didn't really touch too much on income and the fact that a lot of women who get abortions already have children, but it's absolutely true. Whether you're middle class or fairly poor, having another mouth to feed means a drastic change in the amount of income you're getting in. Another child may even be the difference between having a home and a comfortable life and being homeless. Many people suggest adoption for cases like this, but I think the fact of the matter is that people who already have children would feel guiltier adopting the baby away than aborting it before it is viable. They already have a child so it feels like unfair abandonment if they give one away, even if they can't afford one.

The adoption argument for laws against abortion access is meant to sound like a compromise, but it usually just pisses me off. It seems to assume a woman who doesn't want a child is nevertheless OK with going through a body-changing pregnancy and birth; and then that she's either found someone to adopt the baby and is OK with giving it away, or that she's OK with just sticking it out there in the world somewhere like a chip in a roulette wheel. If a woman doesn't mind 2 out of 3 of these things, then you don't have to pass a law forcing her to not abort - just be the person who agrees to adopt her baby.
