Yeah, I've known a bunch of people who have had abortions. Most were teen girls who were forced into it by their family or circumstances. My mom had an appointment to abort me but changed her mind, and my oldest sister had at least one abortion. All of those were sketchy situations. In Catholicism, personal circumstances are factored into culpability. You have to be making the decision freely, without undue pressure, and ignorant of knowing it was wrong to do so to be judged to the full extent for it. We're not actually heartless, you know.
Both of my friends were independent adults. They weren't pressured by other people either; they could have carried to term if they had wanted, albeit not without significant health risks.
What qualifies as being "ignorant of knowing it was wrong to do so," though? That particular condition seems rather open to interpretation at first glance.
