But its not always poor, single-parents that have abortions. Sometimes its just an inconveience or an embarrassment to a rich or well-known family. Some of my closest friends come from broken homes or have been abused. They don't turn to crime, instead they've sworn off that life and promised to do better by their kids. Because of my own childhood, I've promised myself that I will never touch any kind of alcohol. Now that doesn't mean that everyone is like that and there are some kids I know who probably will end up in 20/20 before their 18. However, that doesn't mean they shouldn't have been born. The theory is interesting, but I don't buy that the crime rate is lower due to the number of abortions. Its about taking responsibility.
