Wrong, Wrong, Wrong
I've never had an abortion. I don't have kids. Right now, I have no immediate plans to have any kids. Prop 85 doesn't really affect me. Except ... I just REALLY give a shit about this one. I feel like it's a step towards making abortion illegal. I feel like it takes control of a person's body away from them. I feel like it's wrong.
It's far worse to force a girl to carry a pregnancy to term and make her to decide between raising a child she's not mature enough to parent or giving up a baby for adoption, than it would be to hinder her opportunity to terminate a pregnancy.
I don't understand how people can say that teenagers under 18 are not mature enough to decide about their own bodies when it comes to abortions, since these people imply that the same teenagers ARE therefore mature enough to decide between the only other two options left.
So I'll be voting No to 85 next week. I hope you will be too. I know one other person who is.
