Since the Roe V Wade leak there has been so much noise and contradictions about abortion and it’s honestly kept me up the past few nights. It just breaks my heart to hear some of the arguments from the Pro Choice side. I’ve wanted to be a mom so bad even since I was a teen and honestly didn’t care what the circumstances would be as long as I’d get to be a mom and give my child the love and protection they deserve. I’ve had multiple friends and family members post pro choice arguments on Instagram and I’ve written replies and posts of my own only to delete them before sending. I’m not trying to argue, I just care about these people so much that I feel like it’s important to voice my opinion to maybe help them realize that not everything is so straight forward and there is a different way to look at the issue. I end up not saying anything because I don’t want to lose people I care about, I just wish so badly that they’d pause to do research and think before echoing the same “bans off my body” “men can’t make laws about my body” arguments. I had a friend a few years back who’s mom was in the end of her 2nd trimester, the family was so excited and had thrown a baby shower and found out the gender only for the mom to secretly have an abortion and it tore their family apart. I think of the millions of abortions that have nothing to do with the small percentage of rape or health risk situations and can’t fathom how people just look right past it and use the excuse of the few to justify the many. Wish there was something I could do but I feel so helpless when most of the world just covers their eyes and ears and moves on with their day. Sorry for the long post just really felt like I needed to vent a bit.
