Giving some sort of relief to underage parents who are forced to give birth might be a worthwhile mutual aid project. Or just to underage parents in general. Sucks it’s necessary, but it is necessary and any state function which the state shirks responsibility for will inevitably be picked up by a non-state actor. Better us than the christofascists. And yes, we will absolutely be seeing the same groups who worked for decades to overturn Roe now turning around and offering consolation to vulnerable underage parents whose pain directly results from their policies. At least, they’ll help the white parents.

I honestly do not think that's the case. They've operated fake crisis pregnancy centers for decades that offer little or no actual aid.
Well yeah, “consolation” is doing some heavy lifting there. They will frame what they’re doing as guidance and assistance
