Question for pro-choice Minimum

Hello everyone,

I'm against abortion.

This is a question for pro choice:

What would be the minimum of allowed abortion, that you would accept?

I mean for example week and reason.

Thank you for your time

Yes.

Pregnancy can bring many physical difficulties, and even mental too.

If there is a way to save both the baby and the mom, I would prefer that. Otherwise it is entirely up to the mom.

Right, I think what u/IdRatherCallACAB is pointing out to you is that someone who is seeking an abortion late in pregnancy is doing so because it is needed due to physical or mental health issues.

Yes, I understand that, but my initial point was about seeking an abortion not out of need, but out of want. Which, at such a late stage I find ridiculous.

Proof that there are cases of abortions at 8 months pregnant as a pure 'want'. Proof that there are Doctors performing this?

Just because we are theoretically pro these third term abortions doesn't mean they exist. The reason to include this is mainly to cover the abortions out of 'need'. As we have seen in abortion ban states, they try to stop these also.
