June 21, 2012 - In general I'm in favor of the manditory therapy sessions and twenty-four hour waiting periods some states place on receiving an abortion. It's far from perfect in instances where a woman has to travel long distances to receive service, but considering the amount of pregnancies that originate from abusive relationships I think it's important to identify such situations and also evaluate if the abusive partner is demanding the abortion (which also happens), then try as best as possible to find care for that woman.

Also, I want to point out that despite the reputation they have, polyamorous or polygamous relationships are not always abusive. Steve and Brianna can be pretty insensitive to other people, but I think there's a lot of trust and support between the two of them and Wanda. Star may disagree, but I'd like to believe Steve and Brianna learned from their mistakes with Star and are treating Wanda better. Besides most of the problems between Star and Steve stemmed from a lack of communication rather than abusive tendencies, which can occassionally go hand and hand, but I don't think those were the circumstances in this situation.

Meanwhile, Aaron's presumably walking to the break room while this is going on, assuming you read yesterday's comic.
