Of course. Nothing is simple about the issue. But the prompt was to see the issue from the other side's perspective and this data point is something that I, as a person who is pro-choice, didn't expect to be true.

Of course. Nothing is simple about the issue.

I'm still pro-choice, but if 19/20 women who wanted an abortion are glad they didn't get one, that's worth noting. Maybe abortions could be reduced by having pregnant women who want them hang out with babies? I'm more just spitballing than proposing a serious policy, but I do think finding creative ways to reduce abortion without banning it would be in the interests of both sides.
I guess what I was trying to say (poorly) is that I disagree with your interpretation of the survey, based on the follow up information. After the baby is there, with time ( between oxytocin etc), I'm sure there is bonding rather than persistent animosity. But the women clearly feel that their life would have been better had they gotten the abortion. And there's certainly a strong possibility that would affect the child's raising.
Fewer abortions is highly desirable. As are fewer rapes. As are fewer unwanted children. All children deserve to be wanted and well prepared for. Im curious why you believe no one has been working toward fewer abortions without it being a legal matter? Many of us have been working toward that for decades.
But the SCOTUS is no ones doctor and they do not belong in a womans private decision. And it used to be that no one in this country had the right to impose their religious beliefs on everyone of different religions. This SCOTUS is going to make everything worse for everyone. They have already sullied the courts reputation by lying to congress to be seated and by behaving abhorrently toward the citizens of our nation.
