There wouldn’t be abortion if it weren’t for how unmarried pregnant girls are treated. Most women would want to keep their baby but they are called sluts and the family is shamed.
The shaming is not without reason.
There are serious negative social consequences for bearing children outside the context of an intact family.
It’s the very reason for #7 of the Big Ten.
Interesting that the “solution” that the world values is destroying the “evidence”, ie, murdering the baby,
instead of obeying #7.
That may have been true in the 70’s, but today out of wedlock childbirth is seen as routine and even celebrated....
Another measure of how far we have fallen. It shouldn’t be taken to excess, but there is nothing wrong with a little shame over moral failings. However, it should be followed by forgiveness and mercy.
That is true. Before abortion was widely available men could still get out of their share of responsibility in creating new life and society shamed not only the women, but the innocent children as well.
Research “baby farms” in Victorian England.
There is cause and effect for everything. If BOTH parents were held responsible equally, then many of these problems would not exist or be so much less.
So, only unmarried women have abortions? I did not know that.
