Same with me, with the exception that the necessary arrangements are made within the first 12 weeks, the earlier the better. I seriously doubt that abortion would be used as a form of repeated contraception, though if that is the case, perhaps there should be a law to address that form of extreme abuse. Women I've known who've had abortions had one while quite young, and didn't want to talk with anyone about it, as they felt so badly about it. No one wants to go through that. But if they do want multiple abortions, they have mental problems and need to get help in a psychiatric facility.

As long as abortions are legal on demand (and 10 weeks should be the cutoff), it could be legally required that women seeking abortions should watch videos demonstrating how abortions are performed.

I also support laws requiring more coherent sex education in biology classes in secondary schools, adoption law reform as well as community initiatives so that women with unplanned pregnancies and men who accidentally impregnated women can get more support from the community. That way the rate of abortion goes down.

I am actually acquainted with a few women that use or have used it as birth control. One finally got sterilized, I stopped associated with the other two.

Almost like mass murder. Psychiatric help (the type without drugs, hopefully) should be free in the US for everyone, or even required by law for these "ladies".
