Those are all for conveniency. 

Why do you think women get abortions? Source?

Lacking money is not an "inconvenience" it is quite literally what determines survival in a society like ours. Seeing what poverty on an individual level looks like is definitely a large contributor to my belief in abortion access. 

Also, of course, it is also a question of individual liberty. One thing I hope people who are anti abortion consider is, what makes us human? I think the key for the abortion conversation lies in our understanding of how the brain works. I think this because we will eventually be able to point to quantifiable metrics of when a brain can start to function in certain ways.

And most importantly, the physical act of childbearing is solely on the mother. They are the person with the most at stake. The person who has already carved a life out in this world should have more of a say than a person who doesn't even exist yet. 

Abortion is an imperfect solution for an imperfect world. The fact that anti abortion absolutism is still so mainstream is really disheartening.
