Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]
Right, let me see if I understand. Currently in Poland there are 3 main reasons that pregnancies can be terminated, danger to the mothers health, pregnancy due to rape and limited life expectancy of the child.
So a bunch of politicians (mostly male) with strong support of the catholic church (male) are going to decide what's best for the women of Poland. I don't advocate abortion simply being used as a method of birth control but I'd like to know the following if a woman had to go full term with her pregnancy, let's say after a rape.
Let's imagine she's a 20 year old single woman. What level of support would she get, financially, psychologically, education, job prospects, child care etc..... and of course the biggest burden she would carry would be the stigma of being an ''un married mother'' I'm just curious to know.
Maybe the next thing would be that any woman that had a miscarriage would be investigated to check that it was genuine.
Someone mentioned on here about the sanctity of life, I find it strange when you consider that there are close to 60 countries that still have the death penalty and turn any news channel on to really see what we humans are capable of, bombings, shootings, etc.. I think taking away the right of all women to do what they want with there own bodies is the least of our problems and completely wrong in my opinion.
I just hope that President Duda's daughter doesn't have an ''accidental'' pregnancy, he could always seek guidance from some catholic fanatical priest and I guess she could go on an ''overseas'' holiday.
