What we truly need to to entirely restructure society and form a world where the American dream doesn't require 2 kids. As a society we're so sexually immature that abortion seems necessary to us now but if we would actually learn to take responsibility for the actions we take and the offspring we make maybe we wouldn't have use for it in all but extreme medial circumstances...
Yes responsibility is important. A lot less abortions would take place if people were more responsible for their own actions. But in the event that responsibility takes a back seat to passion or perhaps failure of protective measures results in an unwanted baby on the way, why should we as a society force onto another the demand that they deliver that child into the world?
Adoption is another method for unwanted children. But there is also the argument about children that it is found are going to be disadvantaged mentally or physically. Instead of forcing these women to bring to term a child that will never be able to live on their own why not have the option of abortion.
I am not advocating forced abortions for anyone. But realistically, with well over 6 billion people on this pathetic speck of dust in the universe, we certainly aren't an endangered species by a long shot. Selective breeding methods should be in place to help women decide when they want to be mothers.
