Should abortions be allowed in cases of rape and incest?

I think more steps to make it viable to carry the child to term and to support adoption can be taken, but the ability to choose is important - especially when the situation has been forced upon a victim. Of course every alternative should be looked at. Sadly, many women lack a strong support structure of family and friends capable of helping them through pregnancy and child care. I know this isn't the only reason they might choose abortion but I think it's the most influential factor.

I think that Fishy c (talk · contribs) has some good ideas, in that - regardless of whatever the laws on abortion state - better support structures and education are a good thing.
