Everybody's circumstances are different and I can't decide what is best for them. Like you said it's not my choice. I know many have offered adoption as a solution and I'm not saying it's not a viable option, but it still has it's consequences. I dated a girl who had given up her baby for adoption after getting pregnant at a young age (not mine, this was years after and she told me about it). She had tremendous amounts of guilt over it. As you said, not my choice to make for others.
That's my reason fro being pro-choice, every situation is unique. When you make abortion illegal it is a blanket statement. How can you adjust for every variable in a given situation? This is why it is best left to those directly involved.
