well as any lingering physical or psychological effects.
Even if abortion is considered the killing of a defenseless child, serious
and difficult questions cannot be avoided. Certainly, it is illegal and immoral

Having a baby at that time in her life was just really bad timing. At 15 she was just starting her life. Personal space to herself, study, travel, and experiencing the world was what she wanted to do. Which is what every teenager in the world would like to do, but with a baby by her side. It was just not possible. All her hopes and dreams had been shattered into a million pieces because of one mistake.
