I think abortion is every couple's (Hopefully couple) OWN desicion.
Absolutely no third party opinions should be involved in such desicion.
Absolutely no political parties should be involved either.

Reasons for abortion are many. Some good some bad but still the
individuals involved own matter. Only way to reduce unnecessary abortions
is to educate your kids and get rid of censorship.
