Questions We've Been Avoiding *full disclosure*

[@MattandAbby]

Wish we would have included this in the video, but we wanted to say that our position on being pro-life also extends to the lives of people on death row. To immigrants lives. To the lives of women that face sexual assault and rape. We are pro-life across the board. Not just regarding the lives of babies in the womb.

@@MarkK395 personally I'm pro-choice and normally I've found pro-lifers to be very aggressive and judgemental. But Matt and Abby spoke about it in such a way that made me feel like we were pretty much on the same page even though we label ourselves as the opposite view point. I believe no one should be forced to endure a pregnancy they do not want to go through. That's all there is to it for me.

[@hermionepink96]

I got pregnant at 14 from r@pe. Had a miscarriage prob bc I was a child. That's why I'm pro-choice though because there are kids like me that have horrific things happen to them. The idea of birthing a baby from a traumatic event as a child was terrifying. I love the way you explain being prolife even though I have a different view based on my life.

[@mechadoggy]

Most pro-life people would be fine with making an exception for rape though, so you’d still be allowed to abort

[@danaschreiner3334]

@mechadoggy thats why it's gets confusing, though, bc that is pro choice. It's still allowing a person to choose for themselves. If you're willing to make any type of exception, then you're allowing a person to choose for themselves and not the government. It is confusing because some people could be pro life from a personal or moral perspective but pro choice from a legal one. Allowing women to choose for themselves what is an appropriate reason to abort is paramount to their health and sense of self.

[@danaschreiner3334]

Agreed

[@mechadoggy]

@@danaschreiner3334 It’s not black and white like that. There’s a whole spectrum of political positions that are in between the extremes of “abortion should be available (and provided for) at every stage of pregnancy no matter what, no exceptions” vs. “abortion should not be allowed no matter what, no exceptions”. I’ve never heard though of people being considered pro-choice if they were pro-life except in the cases of rape or if the mother’s health was in danger. Usually, those people just get called women-hating misogynistic fascist Nazis on Twitter.

[@andreil1313]

people can be pro life and pro choice at the same time. I could never get an abortion and still think that women should have a choice still.

[@vanessajanik4623]

Also love your guys answer about college. You’re absolutely right, it’s not a one size fits all. Especially w/so many young ppl going into lifelong debt to get a degree they’ll never use. There’s so many other more practical options. As long as you have goals, realistic expectations & are willing to do the work. Also, your passion doesn’t necessarily have to be your career.. like your job can just be the thing you get paid for & you find a way to take joy in it but your passion can be totally separate. To many ppl get stuck thinking they have to be one in the same.

[@MattandAbby]

Could not agree more! College is a great tool for a lot of people, but it's not "one size fits all" and not the sole determinant of success. There are a TON of billionaires that dropped out of college to start businesses and change the world.

[@gus4198]

Just let people make their own decisions. You can be pro life for yourself, not a problem. But why should YOU decide what OTHER people can and can’t do with their lives. That’s the only thing I can’t understand as to what gives you the right to dictate other people’s lives.

[@Becca-jt5ec]

@@gus4198 I agree. I say, if you don’t want an abortion and you believe it’s wrong, it is well within your rights to refuse it and I completely respect the sanctity that you place on that life. BUT when those beliefs start to infringe on my rights to reproductive healthcare, that’s when I have a huge problem with it. PLUS a lot of people are pro choice but call themselves pro life because it sounds more moral. Abby and Matt don’t sound like these kinds of people, just to clarify. But there are tons of them out there that are like “I’m pro life unless there was rape or invest involved” well guess what, you’re pro choice. Or “I’m pro life but if the mother or baby may die, then abortion is ok” well guess what, you’re pro choice. These pro life and pro choice buzz words are really just designed to imply morality vs. lack of morality. It should be called pro choice and anti choice

[@Becca-jt5ec]

@grace I love this! The reality is these subjects evoke very strong emotions and opinions and because of that, it’s very unlikely one side will ever change the other side’s mind. But it’s so valuable to be able to disagree respectfully.

[@clareperkins304]

I think what's helpful in these conversations is remembering that being pro-choice isn't pro-abortion, it's pro-choice, as in if someone absolutely is forced into that decision, they have that option. Not recommending it as the #1 solution, but making sure that people have the option when absolutely necessary, which is necessary until there are WAY more people like them who are willing to be apart of the solution

[@clareperkins304]

@@brendamiller5785 might. Choice is about having both options be an option!

[@CrowandRaven]

No offense, but if you’re pro choice, you open abortion as an option, therefore making you pro abortion even when circumstantial. Unless your life is being legitimately threatened (such as an ectopic pregnancy), to kill an unborn child (which until the 1960s was considered a living being from the moment of fertilization) should be ostracized. Of course, this sentiment won’t matter if it turns out that those children born are not valued by their parents to the extent that they consider abortion as a viable option simply for convenience. I’ve seen the trauma on video by toddlers who had no stable home and were transferred to foster care too often. And there needs to be better care for the women forced into that position. No wonder this issue is so nuanced.

[@Runner-Boy]

Yes but that's not how it works they can do it for any reason no restrictions

[@MonkEBoy-ud6kj]

@@CrowandRaven being pro-choice means you support and advocate for a woman’s right to choose for herself… regardless of what that choice is. Being “pro-abortion” sounds like people picketing outside of maternity wards demanding that the pregnant women abort their babies. It’s not a thing that exists. It’s all about choice.

I just wanted to highlight that many babies that are not wanted are not the healthy ones but just the kids with problems/disabilities (and that for many people that's the argument for abortion because prenatal medicine improved so much during past few years/decades) people may not decide to have a kid who you have to put tons of money for therapy and milion of hours of work, for which not many people are prepared and able unfortunately 😔

can you guys make a tiktok of future rules for your kids? dating, bedtime, etc

[@kyliehollinger5363]

Love this idea!

[@maddiecampbell]

Matt and Abby for president plzzz!!! They r so thoughtful and actually care about others

[@jehannevogel902]

wow finding out you guys are pro life makes me so extremely happy!! You two are absolutely amazing and so brave to talk about it on the internet.

[@racheleickmeier3157]

Out with a bang! Love having conversations with people who have different opinions. It's never what you expect and you learn so much. So thankful you're encouraging that ❤

[@rachelmyers4570]

Thank you so much for expressing your view on being pro-life. You said it beautifully! You're doing an amazing thing by being willing to adopt and I wish you all the best in your journey!!

[@JCLO119]

We got married at 18 and 19 🥰crazy right!!! We are still married 36 years I can’t believe it as I say it. Time goes by so fast, so don’t blink. We have 3 kids and 5 granddaughters yup that’s true!! Xxxxx You guys are Great!

[@michellehill1829]

Lol sometimes I wish I could be Abby’s friend. She seems so energized she seems so nice and cool:( I need her type of socialness

[@heartcandy21]

I just LOVE how respectful and mature you guys are

[@samanthayoung6818]

I LOVE how you answered “controversial” topics!

Whether or not you need to go to college depends on what you are passionate about and want to do with your life. I dropped out of college, joined the Navy, had some medical issues that led to my separation after I was discharged, and went to trade school for my CDL. A 4 week school that can either be paid by a company if you commit to them or like 5 to 6k. Nowhere near as much debt as a 4 year degree, and you can make high 5 figure salary or even 6 figures. You can more than support a family with 4 weeks of education or less. Everyone has their own path to success. YASS Moissanite! I did that for my fianceé too.

New Zealand is AMAZING. You guys should totally move there.

[@trinitylechner9619]

I truly appreciate both pro life and pro choice. My sisters and I were victims of physical abuse and just recently my little sister to sexual abuse. It’s amazing that there are some people out there helping and supporting! Love you guys and keep being amazing!❤️

[@sydneyhewit624]

I'm personally pro-choice but I really appreciate your comment on wanting to be a part of the solution. Being vaccinated, supporting immigrants and people of color, LGBTQ+ people, etc. is so important and your compassion makes you ACTUALLY pro-life, not just anti-choice. Despite our different opinions on the subject your overall outlook on life maintains my respect for you.

[@jaylanfennell8017]

Yes, college is not the end all be all! Have a life plan that you are passionate about, there are so many ways to pursue life.

[@kyanaboily]

I cannot believe how many people are pro life. I really love you guys and agree we don't all have to have the same views but everybody should have a choice, sadly I wish more people saw why this was humane

[@mary-brentbrown6736]

I agree. Abby and Matt generally seem like such empathetic people, and I wish that their empathy extended to allowing everyone to have a choice. They, who are in a loving relationship, of course view children as a blessing, but not everyone is fortunate enough to have a pregnancy in their context

[@im.brooklynn]

Wait could one of y’all explain, how they aren’t giving everyone a choice??? How is that possible they can’t make you not have a choice.

[@mary-brentbrown6736]

@@im.brooklynnmany people who have the same opinion Matt and Abby have intentionally vote in a way to prevent everyone else from having a choice and advocate for limitations on this choice

[@taylorgrace5384]

I love how you guys said that you wish people can and need to have different opinions and still talk so true

[@avasrinivas3647]

Aww. My future plan is to adopt kids too. In india adoption is not so popular. So, I feel like my extended family will probably hate me for this.

[@ashleyoreads]

Politics is everywhere, im a poli sci major tho so thats why i believe that frame. I think a politics you could and have focused on-is showing more about ur volunteer work or the places you have donated too. I really admire your guys' hearts. Politics has gotten branded as a bad thing (blue vs. red), but really its how society functions, written and unwritten social norms, and honestly we need more compassion in it. So without even using the word "politics" you guys have been using your platform to show "hey we are donating all the money we get from our merch to x, y, and z." so whatever you want to share ever might be political to some and not to others. But you are helping individuals and society-so thank you!

[@BreeMichelle5655]

Listening to you guys explain your explanation on pro life just shows what truly beautiful people you guys are so glad I’ve come across your channel! Binge watching to get caught up 😅

[@kaelynsanders581]

Subscribed! Love how open and real you two are!

[@justified1949]

One of the cutest couples on KZbin 🥰🥰

[@daynadmoserkent6095]

I took my husband off of life support 4 weeks ago today. While it's never a subject you want to talk about, I'm so glad throughout our 23 years of marriage that we had vibrating that prepared me for this time in my life. Now, I don't think that you can ever fully prepare for an experience like this, specially with our 6 kids involved. I'd never wish this on anyone. I've never felt my soul ache like this! Even with losing my parents just 7 months apart, I couldn't have been fully prepared.

[@Kjmck-pl1jk]

I respected y’all before but now… wow. Multiply that by 10 💕 love you guys!

[@jmelynn0213]

💛 found you all accidently 6 months ago and haven't missed a video yet! I married young too (18 years old, now 29) and love seeing other young love couples rocking it at married life! Many may doubt you, but keep your heads held high even when it gets harder then you ever imagined. Together, you truly can make it through anything❤❤❤

[@amberbrown9012]

Yes!! Love that y’all aren’t afraid to say you’re pro life! It’s a very sensitive topic and I think you guys are right about adoption. My husband and I are thinking of adopting as well for this reason.

[@rachelwhiddon5343]

Matt and Abby, I find you both such a sweet couple. You are the kinda people id love to hang out with. That you for being yourselves. many blessings to you both! :)
