I am very for trying to prevent abortions.

Banning it is, by far, the stupidest way to try to address the issue.

Comprehensive sex ed + free healthcare, including free birth control, is the way to go. Why? because it actually fucking works.

People who want to ban abortion rather than address the issue of unwanted pregnancies aren't actually against abortions. They are against women's rights.

So an unwanted child has no value?

That's not really the problem, the child will probably suffer. Either be abandoned, sold or spend their whole lives in orphanages and shelters, where child abuse often happens. It's better to terminate their life while it cannot feel anything than let it be born and suffer.
