I support abortions for all reasons. I think everyone should get them. In fact, they should give them away sometime on Oprah...
"You get an abortion! And you get an abortion! And you get an abortion..."
It'd be really interesting to see a graph of for/against abortion grouped by country, and ideally by political leaning too.

shareOn abortion, one should never say, "never."
Suppose your mentally challenged 12 year old got raped and became pregnant. Should that child be forced to have a child?
There are many different ways to look at this issue.
I agree that's a legitimate ethical reason for abortion. It falls under "life of the mother" since pregnancy would cause major threats to her sanity.
However, most abortions are sought by adult women who had consensual sex and just believe a child is inconvenient at this time in their life. That may be practical, but it's not ethical.
I've been trying to stay out of this conversation because there is nothing good that will come out of it, but this is a gross mischaracterization.

First, let me say again, I support abortion rights for every woman regardless of her reason.
I'm saying that like anything, just because it's her legal option, that doesn't make her decision to abort an ethical one.
If a woman is economically strapped and cannot afford a child, does that mean that ending a possible human life is ethical?
There are options like adoption or government financial support.
So yes, I confess, "inconvenience" makes light of a very anguished decision on the part of the mother. But we're talking about the difference between life and non-existence for her potential offspring.
I don't know about anyone else, but I enjoy my life and I am glad my mother gave me this one-and-only opportunity to live.
