If you don't believe in abortion, what practical alternative can you offer?
Please refrain from, "people should know better when they have sex, etc", or claim they'll be adopted, because that is simply a ridiculous statement. If you're going to point out an injustice, it is incumbent that you are prepared to offer the solution.
So how do you propose we solve the specific problems of:
1) Unwanted children? Assuming we force the mother to give birth, what happens psychologically to children that nobody wants? Do they grow up loved, cared about, abused, abandoned?
2) Who will pay for the new orphanages?
3) What about "back alley" abortions? We have to accept that this WILL occur, and a dangerous "cottage industry" for illegal abortions will arise. Is this what society needs?
4) What about 3rd world nations where there aren't enough resources to support unwanted babies, where many mothers don't even have sufficient nutrition to lactate? Do we knowingly allow these births even though
