Thanks for posting this. It's good to see filmmakers telling these stories and treating abortion honestly, as the fact of life it is.

I'm SO tired of movies and TV shows doing stories about unwanted pregnancies that don't include even a mention of abortion as something a woman in that situation might possibly be thinking about. There's a storyline like that on Young Sheldon right now, and it's really starting to get on my nerves. NOBODY involved is the least bit happy about the pregnancy in question, especially the woman herself, but so far there hasn't even been the slightest hint that she might possibly have any other option than carrying the pregnancy to term. I'm still hoping for a plot twist, but I don't know how likely that is.
