What should happen is that the anti-abortionists should offer support for the pregnant mothers. They generally do not.
The fact is that as a rule, everyone likes babies, fetuses not so much. Once the baby is born, the tendency is to keep the child.
My position is that it should be 100% up to the woman and her doctor whether she has a baby or not. People who oppose abortions should offer an attractive alternative, and they don't. They prefer to pass laws and criminalize things.
Many want to "teach the woman a lesson": that the Wages of Sin is a baby she does not want, and for her to not take her punishment is against God and Society and should be against the government as well.
