The pregnant child is a victim in this. Ten is too young, and has been since the beginning of time. Margaret Beaufort was married (again, first she was married at three) to Edmund Tudor at twelve and her husband was supposed to wait (the social norm of the time.) he didn’t, and the traumatic birth of Henry VII happened when she was just 13. She never had any more children, and that was apparently down to the horrendous injuries she suffered. It’s also supposed to have turned her into the person she was (interesting, but genuinely ferocious) Ten is a child and extremely high risk for complications md a very traumatic birth
Ohio has exemptions for rape, and child pregnancies. I am generally very much against abortion. At the same time I think that while it’s always killing there may be times when that killing is not necessarily fine and dandy but acceptable. Like war, or killing in self defence, we know killing the born is wrong but sometimes society allows it.
It appears the reason the child had so much trouble getting the abortion was the mother not reporting the boyfriend. I don’t really understand that tbh, if I was that kids mother the boyfriend would be buried under the patio by now.
