We still have so many unwanted child in this world why in God name make more suffer. Let women make up their own decisions. This is about the Money Money Money 💵 nothing else .

Please have the churches and people that want to have women have babies, make a 10 trillion dollar (or more) fund to have these women have help raising these children; housing, food, education, health care, child care etc etc.
