This is an excellent video. Just wanted to point out: abortion is no longer illegal in Northern Ireland (contrary to what is stated at 9:20). Abortion was decriminalised in NI in October 2019, and abortion services have been legally available since April 2020.

Thank you for the compliments. Abortion in teenage pregnancy is a difficulty ethical topics. A lot of the same issues apply but depending on the age of the mother, even more safeguarding issues may need to be considered.
It doesn't matter if you're pro-choice, pro-life or even pro-birth, abortions do HAPPEN whether it is legal or not so do you want to risk the lives of these women? They should at least have the opportunity to seek professional help regarding this matter to ensure their safety

Abortion isn’t 100% safe so don’t lie to yourself. There’s many cases of women developing ptsd and severe depression after going through an abortion. Why is it even encouraged in the first place with how normalized and common it’s become?
All the arguments from the pro-choice side could be applied to the "abortion" of an unwanted 5 year old.
