Attempting to leave both politics and religion out of this (fat chance, I know):
But in a situation where the mom's life isn't in danger, and the pregnancy wasn't the result of rape, why is abortion still the first choice for a woman with an unwanted pregnancy? How many infertile Bateman-Garner-esque couples are out there? And isn't the waiting list to adopt children from Southeast Asia really long?

You have to ask yourself if you think you could live a comfortable life knowing your offspring was out there somewhere in the world and you had no part of their life.
Then you have to actually do that.
Waiting list times generally vary based on multiple factors. I believe Russia banned adoption by Western parents and China did away with their one child policy so I'd expect a waiting time to be longer since that occurred.

Those are some good points

Both of you. How hard it is give up a child and the ramifications in history for it.

Because a woman has the right to choose if she wants to carry a child she doesn't want for potentially 9 months. Also, there's been cases where the adopting parents decide they no longer want the kid either because the baby isn't healthy by their standards or they get pregnant.
Invidia also makes some really good points.
Juno was a really cute movie, but I wish more movies and tv shows didn't make abortion a moral dilemma.

Assuming it was not the victim of rape, you are not forced to get pregnant. That is where I disagree with the comparison to war casualties. I don't believe being drafted was optional.

In that one specific case, yes I suppose it was not Mary's decision. I see why the OP said to leave religion/politics out of the discussion. LOL.
