I think the best thing to do is actually making the climate desirable to have children. A lot of abortions happen because “I can’t afford it” “I can’t do it because of education”, better access to contraception, etc. I think childcare should be free if you’re not like- middle-middle class and pregnant women should get child benefit. However, crisis pregnancy centres are also weirdly called out which is strange considering they are wanting to help care for the child.

This still doesn’t change the fact that I cannot see how abortion is moral at all. And it’s the same reason why I don’t think we should let people harm their children. The “my body my choice” thing won’t work with me because I do not consider a foetus part of the woman’s body. I saw an ultrasound of an abortion as well and it was shocking, the foetus actively seemed to be trying to escape it. If you asked a child “do you want to die” the answer would obviously be “no”. I absolutely abhor how people dehumanise foetus as “mass of cells” or even worse “parasite” and make abortion seem like a normal thing. I abhor people who use abortion as a contraceptive method. I abhor people who are calling for “death penalties” for people who get abortions, as most of the time, they aren’t in a good state when they get it.
