No, it means no one has the right to use your organs without your consent.
No one can have sex with you without your consent.
No one can sue you to force you to transfuse them or give them an organ, even if they will die without them.
Born kids can be put in the extremely problematic, underfunded, overcrowded foster care system where approximate half a million kids are stuck, with roughly 50 thousand a year aging out and only a quarter getting adopted. Not to mention the tragedies where foster kids or unwanted children are sometimes neglected and abused to death by their carers.
Or you can prevent suffering and raising taxes to support welfare by not demanding every pregnancy be carried to term.
I agree we need to increase foster care because not everyone has the means to support a child. And then again I think there is currently a senator who was homeless throughout most of her youth and now is a major US political figure
