| 111. I'm so sorry to hear that! |

It's like I always tell people when this issue comes up: If a girl/woman does not want to be pregnant, and does not want to deliver the baby, she will find a way to try to end the pregnancy. If it's not a safe, legal, and hassle-free abortion, then it will be some other method, something much more damaging to everyone involved with her.
Why does our society seem so intent on forcing everyone to follow the beliefs of a minority of society members? Why can't people just mind their own business?
If you don't believe in abortion, don't get one.
