Why should someone want to be willing to leave their job or social life to have a child?
And if they don't want to have a child and seek an abortion, what is wrong with that?
And if they feel ready for a child later in life and spend money on artificial insemination or surrogacy what is wrong with that?*
* I do believe adoption is ideal. But there are many barriers and challenges to adoption. Adoption has been made bureaucratic, expensive, and complicated. If you are not a citizen then there are more hoops to jump through for adoption. If you are single or same-sex then even if it is legal, there are barriers in place.
A same-sex couple I know wanted to be foster parents. The fostering agency insisted they go through counseling with a therapist. This therapist, also a pastor, believed in traditional male/female roles in parenting and started probing on who would be the mother-type and father-type and refused to accept how they planned to share duties. When they asked to choose a different therapist - they were rejected. So eventually, they chose to get artificial insemination.
