health of the mother?
Many states allowed a mental health exception, all the mother had to do was claim she was stressed due to the pregnancy and she could have an abortion. Has anyone ever met a pregnant woman who was not stressed?
This topic hits very close to home for me. I had a cousin who found out that she had female cancer during one of her OBGYN visits while pregnent. She was told if they aborted the baby she could get treatment and likely survive. If she waited until after the preganacy it would probably be too late. She chose to have the baby and did not make it. I am in no way saying a woman should not abort a baby to save her own life but I have personally watched a relative go through that and am offended when trivial things are used as an excuse to abort a child.
