Adoption is not an alternative to abortion.

[Le Taz Hot]

19. A friend of mine

had a baby back in the '60's. She was a single mom to 2 already, struggling, no help from her family, and she found herself pregnant. She ended up having a baby and giving it up for adoption. Fast forward about 8 years later, still not doing a lot better financially, she gets pregnant and this time had an abortion. She's in her 70's now and she says there is not a day that goes by that she doesn't think about that adopted child. She says she rarely thinks about the abortion.

This is not a one-size-fits-all situation. Each woman is different. Each situation is different. Every woman needs to be able to make her own decision in her own way about each pregnancy. Notice how no one else is involved in that decision, except perhaps her doctor.
