Abortion is a medical procedure resulting in the termination of a human pregnancy and death of a fetus. Abortion was banned in 30 states until the 1973 Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade. The ruling made abortion legal in all 50 states but gave them regulatory powers over when abortions could be performed during a pregnancy. Currently, all states must allow abortions early in pregnancies but may ban them in later trimesters.

@8HGDYSK4yrs4Y
Education, remove the taboo, teach consent to all children, and help the mental health of those who do choose to abort but make it socially acceptable to adopt because there are families who would love to welcome another family member.

Abortion should NOT be aloud
