If you’re okay with abandoning aging parents, why not leave a child up for adoption? Both are, quite frankly, gross concepts

Having children is a choice, and you agree to be responsible for them.
Being born is not.

Being raped and forced to give birth isn't a choice.

Sorry, I haven't considered such a possibility.
