It’s a story that experts believe will become more common after the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling last year.

    If you think it’s a better moral outcome for a 13 year old child to have their rapist’s baby than an abortion you’re a monster.

      The people who didn’t want her to have an abortion, there’s likely a very high % of them who believe she did something to obviously tempt her rapist

        It’s those sinful short shorts kids wear these days, practically naked. Definitely deserved it /s

        (Sadly I have heard this exact argument from many christo-fascist theocracy supporters…)

      I would push back on that ever so slightly.

      If someone even a child, chooses to carry their rapists baby, that’s their choice.

      AKA: no one should be forced either way, aka pro-choice

      Its disgusting that this happened in the first place- but abortion is legal in Mississippi in the case of rape. According to the article the mother didn’t know of the exception. I’m confused as to why no doctors informed her though.
