They don't have maternity wards, but they'd have abortion clinics?

The article discusses recent legislative developments in the Principality of Liechtenstein regarding the protection of life during pregnancy. The parliament has approved a proposal allowing termination of pregnancy up to the twelfth week, with exceptions for serious health risks to the mother, sexual offenses leading to conception, or if the child would be born under 14 years old. The article highlights the lack of maternity wards in the country, forcing women to seek care abroad, and mentions the Church's stance on protecting the dignity of the unborn child and supporting families. It also references Saint Teresa of Calcutta, who emphasized the sanctity of life and questioned the morality of mothers ending their own children's lives. The piece includes a quote from a local bishop calling for the creation of conditions for abortion within the country and a reflection on building a society where all children are welcomed and parents receive necessary support.
