Hate the sin, not the sinner. Passing judgment is not an appropriate choice, but the child you choose to abort today could turn out to be so much more than the inconvenience you might have to go through. Awesome cast with believable results, great storyboard. Highly recommended for everyone, especially for anyone struggling with life changing decisions. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
