the mother and the child. be it financial, mental.
 Having limited resources and not enough support like money to raise a child can put the mother in unnecessary stress
 Not having access to safe abortion lead to unsafe abortions that can cause harmful effects on the health of mothers

as maternal deaths and health complications.

from child labor due to poverty
