For the younger woman, even taking time off, planning, and tripping over seems easy but just hard enough to let things ride.

Not going to ask them why or why not they didn't take the time to drive over to MN. But I suspect there is more to this than setting up a time, tripping, and maybe paying. Can't say where in the conversation I picked this up, but especially the manager seems to be taken by self-conflict because of all that is happening around the country on abortion. They don't seem to be thinking clearly about what is best for them. Maybe she will take on her childbearing very well and be happy. But I think there are undo pressures that should not be coming into their decision-making... especially if it were local and not have more stigma again!
