Fool them all...
Did it ever occur to you that mental illnesses, including those with onset due to trauma, have a significant fatality rate?
I'd never say what was best for all survivors...there's no such pancea. But restoring their control over their body and giving them agency in how they recover seems as close to as a universal as they come. That means a *choice* about if they want to keep the child or not. Some women report that keeping the child was a way of bringing good out of evil. Others abort, and describe that as the moment that they were able to gain closure and separation from the threat that their assailant had inflicted. The universal there is that they felt in control of what came next.
It's precisely why i use the vocabulary of inhumanity. Simply, the only thing that could bring a person to advocate for a lack of exception in these cases is a <i>willing refusal</i> to see the woman as a person.
