Who is sad to see abortion on demand legal in Ireland

How many of your children have you given up for adoption?

How many children in care do you foster?

As of 1 January 2009 Abortion is permitted during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy, and later in cases where the pregnant woman's life or health is at risk, or in the cases of a fatal foetal abnormality. Abortion services commenced on 1 January 2019 following its legalisation by the aforementioned Act, which became law on 20 December 2018. This law followed a constitutional amendment approved by a referendum in May 2018, I am from limerick and I voted no, I think this very sad because it will take away the right to life of the unborn, most abortions in UK over 90% are carried out when the Baby is healthy and Mother life not at Risk, I understand in cases of rape and foetal abnormality it being allowed but these are only small cases and it will just lead to Women killing healthy unborn foetus, I am very anti abortion I believe life starts from conception abortion is not the only solution adoption is a option , I am aware In some cases, women were travelling to Britain for one but how many were in the crisis pregnancy situation's anyone from Ireland on TSR agree or disagree comments welcome

I am pleased about this. When I was a teen back in the 60’s, I spent some time in the Magdalen Laundries in Ireland.
The majority of the girls ha become pregnant as a result of familial incest, fathers, brothers, uncles. Most were so ignorant and had no idea of how they had become pregnant. There were no choices open to them. They could not return to their families with their babies and so were put up for adoption, spirited out of Ireland and sold to American families who registered the babies in their names so that they couldn’t be traced.
I still have nightmares of girls screaming when they came to take their babies.
Had they had a choice in their unwanted pregnancies, their lives would have been very different.
Yes, it’s time Ireland was dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

Agreed. In my opinion the catholic church has had too much influence in the state. People were having these abortions anyway, all that the referendum has done is ensure that these are accessable at home which is safer.

The reality is, it is each individuals own choice. People don't have an abortion willy nilly, I'd imagine it's a very traumatic decision and one that isn't taken likely. Adoption isn't always the best option and tbh it wouldn't be easy. Then you only have to look at Ireland's history of kids in the care of the state...

My parents were Irish and I was born in Ireland. My mother was 14 when she was married to a man decades her senior. It was not uncommon in rural Ireland at the time. I am one of 16 children. She was illiterate, ignorant. We were all taken into care. She had been abandoned by her husband and couldn’t cope. She was a product of Ireland’s archaic laws and as her children, we inherited that Iliteracy and ignorance in the care system.
They are not, and never will be forgiven.

Say all you want, if you were a young woman who was pregnant at a time where she is in no place to raise a child you would abort.

If you have principles then you would be against it regardless of your personal situation. That's the whole idea of principles and how they are put to the test.

Your principles are different to mine, there is no one correct principle.

Debatable. But regardless, trying to imply someone is only against it because they aren't in that situation themselves is quite ignorant of the concept of principles in the first place.

It’s not debatable, people do have different principles, this OPs principle is that killing unborn babies is wrong under most circumstances, this person has never been in this scenario therefore cannot provide an unbiased judgment on this point.
