I'm talking about early abortion as a fall back to birth control.
Are you really?
Are you willing to back that up by taking the position that a couple that engages in sexual activity without using any birth control isn't entitled to an abortion?
If not, then you're really not taking the position of abortion as a fall back, but are accepting abortion as a primary means of birth control. Please choose.
Presumably, the matter would have been considered and tentatively determined prior to sexual activity.
Oh, yeah.
Your expectations for the behavior of teenagers is every bit as unrealistic as you claim mine is. More so, actually. It's easier to make a decision to abstain totally, I think, since that can be made in a calm and rational manner, than to wait until the sixth beer has been consumed and things are hot and heavy and then say "oh, by the way, do we have birth control going here, and what are we going to do if I get pregnant, we need to discuss and resolve those issues before you go any further." Yeah, right. Like that's going to happen. |
