Is it really that gross? Two people in a relationship are financially dependent on the BF’s single mom. Both are having consensual sex. They have an accident (understandable) and are partially liable (also understandable), and they offer to drive her an entire state away and pay for the abortion because Idaho is a shithole state. Or she can carry to term and be financially dependent on her own family.
If she gives birth and they had decided to keep it, that’s two young adults with a highschool education at best, financially dependent on a single mom in Idaho, now with a third mouth to feed, all on one income. Neither will be able to go to college or save money. The mom will expend everything she’s saved to care for three people, and they will be trapped in a loop of poverty.
However, she accepts the abortion and they drive her all the way to Oregon to get help. Then, they get charged in Idaho for the aforementioned reason (shithole state).
It’s a recurring theme in Idaho, read Educated if you want a depressing but gripping read on the issues of poverty and education and a lack of social safety nets that Idaho has.
During the pandemic, Idaho’s lack of care overtaxed their healthcare system so badly that they had to ship their sick to other states for treatment. This deferred critical medical care for residents of those other states because so many Idaho residents in their hospitals were at risk of dying.
