I don't disagree with what your saying, however we, as a society of the human race, are reaching a saturation point in our evolution in regards to space and cost per child.
I'm reminded of one of my employees who had to take her sisters son away from her sister because her sister was abusing crystal meth and neglecting her son. The sad part is the same sister had done this previously to another of her children, and just left the child with the father, never communicating with it ~ the child was nothing more than a nuisance to her! I think she [her first child] now lives in an abusive home. As for her second child, the one my [ex] employee took away from her sister, well my [ex] employee became so stressed out over the entire situation, that in the process of talking to her sisters pusher, she started abusing the drug herself - what a lame excuse that is, but hey, its the one she gave me. So now this other child is also being equally neglected and partially raised by a father who is a drug dealer.
So in a society where one alternative is an abusive life-style leading to crime which could possibly affect you personally and/or your children in the future, as opposed to.. abortion, which would you prefer? I would prefer just to neuter those unfit to have children and not have to worry about any abortion issue at all, because like you, I feel life is precious, but unlike you, I think people deserve the right to live, not be forced into a lifestyle where they will grow up ignorant, resentful, and destined for a criminal life. Who knows, maybe they could be one of the lucky ones... maybe not. But I think abortion has its purpose in this world!
