Having an abortion is never an easy decision to make. Both an abortion and pregnancy may have long-lasting consequences on a mother’s mental and physical health. So choosing one or the other is tough.

What is easy is blaming women for murdering their unborn children. It is easy to categorize people into pro-life and pro-choice as if there is nothing in between and mothers who choose to terminate their pregnancies are the most evil people in the world who have no souls.

Yes, a child that is growing in a woman’s womb is a life, but what if they are so undeveloped or are at high risk of having an incurable disease that their life would be constant pain and would consist of constant hospital visits? It is possible that they even wouldn’t survive for that long and that would be even more heartbreaking to witness as the parents would have already created a relationship with the child.

Dr. Markowitz talks about women who were raped and realized they are carrying the child of their assailant, or girls that were sexually abused and then had a baby growing in them when they themselves are just children.

The Twitter user also talks about women who have to choose not to have the baby because otherwise it would be them who would not survive. There are also situations when women have to think about their financial situation and even if they want another child, they just couldn’t provide them with a quality life.

There are so many other heartbreaking situations, even more than mentioned in these tweets. Deciding to have an abortion is not the same as deciding which flavor cake to buy for your birthday. Whether in the end a woman chooses to do it or not, it will have an impact for the rest of her life.

And the only person who knows best what consequences she can live with more calmly is the woman and no one else. People in the comments were saying that a woman doesn’t even need to have a super wild reason to end her pregnancy. The emotional aspect is enough. Not feeling prepared to be a parent is enough. It is dangerous to make a person have children if they feel in their hearts that they will not be able handle it.

With these stories, Dr. Malkowitz is saying that she indeed is pro-life and the lives she is defending are women’s lives and their futures
