What I posted to someone else who also thinks that the only option of birth control is the pill I guess.
You need to get up to speed on the modern forms of birth control. It’s not just the pill or condom anymore. There is an implant that lasts for three years at a time. You literally get a shot with the implant, takes about 2 minutes for the whole procedure. Don’t have to think about it until time to replace it.
If anything, this makes me angrier at abortions. There are things you don’t even have to THINK about and it will you from getting pregnant. No excuses.
I know this, and agree with most points. But you know as well, that any slip-up results in a child being “raised” by the state. This is a sensitive topic given the fundamental Consitutional right to bear and raise a child, however distorted the results from that have become over the years. There are many different levels of retardation, and some that would have no effect on the ability to raise a child. But here we are presented with two individuals in separate institutions! Without knowing more, this must be approached smartly.
