All of the following can be true:
- Overturning RvW is constitutionally the correct decision - it is difficult to find a constitutional right to an abortion.
- It is absolutely ridiculous to force a 10 yo to carry a baby to term. Exceptions for health of the mother should include mental health - as in cases of rape or incest where carrying the child would cause great mental anguish and damage.
- Lack of a constitutional right to an abortion should have no impact on access to D&C procedures in the case of miscarriage or devastating birth defects.
- I don't see any connection between this decision and predicted attacks on contraception or plan B - my understanding of plan B is that is prevents fertilization?
- We need better education and support for young people with respect to contraception, health, foster and adoption options, etc.
- We need better support for underprivileged families.
