Yes, Jorj....

I KNOW you are a good guy.....

and I am most of the time....

sadly, the strain of being human takes it's toll on me, too.

I know that If my decisions affect only myself....I might move too fast for conditions.

When my actions involve others....I have a tendency to take more care as I feel a greater responsibility.

When looking at both sides, even if I can clearly see what has caused the others behavior, I can't always accept what is being done. Being objective doesn't stop the action on either side. Regretfully, taking a side can't make both parties happy.

I can see and understand the horror of a young adult getting pregnant with no chance of marriage, no easy life ahead, prolonged education times, stigma, truncation of careers and financial burden. But I can't see the stopping of a heart as the solution. I see it as an easy way out of a terrible predicament. I can come closer to accepting this than I can an older, more mature adult using abortion as a method of birth control.
