I think the main thing that frustates me regarding abortion debates is that the best way to prevent abortions in the first place is with proper sex education. Get people to use proper contraceptives to prevent the unwanted pregnancy in the first place is the best way to cut down on a lot of abortions. Though unfortunately, people who are against abortion for religious reasons tend to be against this as well... but you're not going to stop younger people from fucking each other.

Sapience is a huge part of it for me admittedly, for me before the brain have formed properly the fetus is basically just like any other organ attached to the mother. I'm not against abortion, but I do think it should be prevented in the first place as it can be a huge psychological (and occasionally physiological) burden.
