Millions of women in the United States are losing the constitutional right to abortion, after the Supreme Court overturned its landmark Roe v Wade ruling of 50 years ago, which gave women the right to a termination.
It means that women across the US no longer have the right to abortion guaranteed by the constitution and individual states are entitled to ban the procedure.
Bans in individual states began immediately after the new Supreme Court ruling. 13 states had already passed so-called trigger laws to automatically bring in a ban.
The ruling has delighted opponents of abortion and enraged pro-choice campaigners who have vowed to restore US abortion rights. President Joe Biden described it as "a tragic error”.

As a social worker in Georgia in the United states. I see thousands of kids going through the system who never get adopted, no life skills, the majority of my kids emulate what they see and at 18 we kick them out on the street and about 11% of the kids do get adopted, the rest are just lost, Working dead end jobs, falling prey to addiction and undiagnosed mental health problems and my hands were tied. It was sad to witness. I really hope they dump lots of money into the system so I can really help these kids

Thoughts and prayers for the pregnant men affected by this decision.

The fact that these people are so emotionally overwhelmed with happiness about someone's rights being taken away makes me shudder

So let me get this straight from the UK, the US do not allow women to have a right to choose whether they can abort or not but gun rights are for everybody to choose? Just trying to keep up!

So, how can you guarantee an unwanted child would live in a well loving family and won't get neglect or face domestic violence that every children shouldn't be facing

Would a woman say: "Live won today" , into the face of a woman that got raped. Or a woman that dies if she gets the baby.

I want to hear how they are going to help the unwanted children, shelter, food, medical, education let alone family love. To grow up unwanted b& possible abuse

Making it illegal will not stop people doing it. It will force them to do it under unsafe conditions and will cost many young woman's lives. It is hard to believe that this is really happening.

Its not just about abortion,,what triggers me is how easily they can come up with their own decisions on women's body
