You can't get fired for being pregnant in America, you silly Canadian.
There are seven states that have at-will employment (meaning employees can be fired with need for cause) without public policy exceptions. So they can be fired for whatever reason the employer wants. Also, what if the single mom has two or three part time jobs; she's even less protected then. Even if she doesn't get fired, she's in for an extended amount of time away from work that she cannot possibly afford.
Yes. It is a disgusting thought that one would have an abortion because life would be easier with out the child. That is disgusting.
The child hasn't been born yet. This is not about life being easier without the child. It's not even about life being easier without being pregnant. It's about a single mom with kids who is working to care for them and barely scraping by who will lose her job because of the pregnancy. What will happen to her and her kids then? Are you seriously saying a woman shouldn't get an abortion even if it means her and her existing kids will be homeless and starving?
