People who want to kill babies talking about everyone else not caring about babies/children.
Yep! Which side is fighting for school choice, school safety, and better quality education?... Hint: It is not the Democratic Party and the teacher's unions...
People who insist mothers carry unwanted embryos talking about how people who work within the foster care system don't care about babies.
Maybe you, and others could use some facts about "embryos". This is what mothers want to suck into bits and pieces out of their bodies. Let's at least be honest and admit to what we are okay with destroying the life of.

My mother did share my opinion, actually. That women who are very unhappy that they're pregnant, and don't want their babies, should be able to opt for a safe abortion in the first trimester.
My mother very much wanted to be pregnant, although she knew she was facing a C-section, back when C-sections were rare.

There are great people working with these kids. But the kids have issues. Occasionally the foster parents are ratchet. Now multiply the problems
From their site:
This system is failing.
1 in 8 American children is abused or neglected by age 18
1 in 17 kids enters foster care
The rate of foster care placement increases to 1 in 9 for Black children and 1 in 7 for Native American children
Upwards of 70% of youth involved in the juvenile justice system have been involved in the child welfare system
50% of foster youth will not graduate from high school on time
48% of girls in foster care become pregnant by age 19
60% of child trafficking victims have histories in foster care
33% of homeless young adults were previously in foster care
Kids in foster care are 4x more likely than other children to attempt suicide

I taught child birth classes, and did prenatal visits with teens who were continuing their pregnancies, so I know a LOT about fetal development timelines.
I don’t want to kill babies. But I’m understanding the reasons. Facts are most will be unwanted and they are abused. Some will end up in foster care, how many do well there ? Many will now be in poorer homes and with single moms. If they don’t do well, per the stats now expect many more unhappy kids. Many moms will be desperate and take unhealthy desperate measures. Get out of the bubble.
You are expecting folks will go celibate because the governors ban abortion. Tell me, long term, what are you expecting?
Dear LORD what is wrong with people?
Listen very carefully: THERE. IS. NO. BAN. ON. ABORTION. All the SC did was return the decision to the states.
As for the violin strings - I was unwanted, abused, and spent time in foster homes. According to you, I should have been aborted to 'spare' me that type of life. I'm here to tell you, it's much better being alive.

Exactly. In Texas, that has just outlawed abortion except in cases where the woman's life is in danger, has a foster care system that's bursting at the seams. Kids are being housed in hotels with a caseworker present, or in the caseworker's offices overnight.
We're AT CAPACITY to care for children whose parents, and grandparents, don't want them or are incapable of safely caring for them.
And now this. Nine months from now, we won't know what hit us. Well, we will know, but it won't be pleasant.
