 “The burden of parenthood is an obstacle to women’s success, the pro-abortion attorney tells Amy Coney Barrett, a mother of seven who is a sitting Supreme Court justice.” --Alexandra DeSanctis Marr 

"Barrett is cleverly making Rikelman argue against her interest, putting her in a position of defending indefensible viability on stare decisis grounds, as better than an absolute protection through two trimesters — adopting which, Rikelman knows, would show that the Court would be legislating, not interpreting the Constitution." 
-Andrew McCarthy at NR

Barrett to Rikelman: “... Petitioner points out that in all 50 states, you can terminate parental rights by relinquishing a child after abortion, and I think the shortest period might have been 48 hours if I'm remembering the data correctly. So it seems to me, seen in that light, both Roe and Casey emphasize the burdens of parenting, and insofar as you and many of your amici focus on the ways in which forced parenting, forced motherhood, would hinder women's access to the workplace and to equal opportunities, it's also focused on the consequences of parenting and the obligations of motherhood that flow from pregnancy. Why don't the safe haven laws take care of that problem? It seems to me that it focuses the burden much more narrowly. There is, without question, an infringement on bodily autonomy, you know, which we have in other contexts, like vaccines. However, it doesn't seem to me to follow that pregnancy and then parenthood are all part of the same burden. And so it seems to me that the choice more focused would be between, say, the ability to get an abortion at 23 weeks or the state requiring the woman to go 15, 16 weeks more and then terminate parental rights at the conclusion. Why didn't you address the safe haven laws and why don't they matter?”
