This is FAR more important than the three things you mentioned and is the main reason why poor kids don't succeed in life at the same rate as non-poor kids (poor people tend to be uneducated and retarded, so their kids never get proper parents), but poor kids with non-retarded parents who raise them well have high social mobility and do fine in life.
It's exactly why kids raised by single mothers do worse than everyone else (including equally poor kids raised by two parents, and single-dad households) in every metric. Women, on average, can't raise kids by themselves no matter how much money they have for nannies or whatever. Kids need a father figure to put them in line, and no woman or "assistant" is going to provide that. Maybe if she sends them to a strict boarding school she can sidestep the problem, but most people aren't going to do that.
An accidental pregnancy by a single woman is unlikely to result in a productive member of society no matter what.
Also, you keep ignoring the fact that this is an exception and not the typical situation that you can form your view on abortion on.
I don't give a shit about Lilly Allen and am not defending her.
I'm simply talking about abortions in general.
