Granted all of that, is it then preferable to simply eliminate the rape exception?

Does the government put any impediments in the way of women seeking birth control, morning-after contraception or abortion? This might make a case for taxpayers to bear some cost for the sequelae of these policies.

This was talking about the government in the UK.

You are sounding nuts.

I AM talking about the U.K. Nothing in my post implies otherwise. Others, including perhaps you, may have assumed I was erroneously talking about the U.S.

Is anyone forcing her? If it was rape, there is a rape kit. If it wasn't rape then no extra funding.

Sold into slavery and mum should be put to death.
"If it was rape, there is a rape kit. If it wasn't rape then no extra funding. "

Are you under the impression that use of a "rape kit" proves or disproves whether a rape has occurred?

I was responding to D.

Sorry for not making it more clear.

I'm okay with there being no rape exception at all, on the theory that child tax credit policy is not about fault or blame.

But I still don't see why getting rid of the rape exception entirely is any less harmful or cruel to rape victims than having one.
