that adoption is an option but if abortion is illegal it won't be an option - it will be a necessity - and the adoption industry isn't able to absorb all the babies who would be created if abortion were illegal and adoption were made the alternative.
Adoption is a good alternative when everyone involved is actively and freely choosing that option. It would be a bad thing to force adoption on women in crisis pregnancies. It would also be a bad thing to have hundreds of thousands of children who are not wanted be born every year when there will not be hundreds of thousands of families looking to adopt every year. What happens to the other children?
