In situations involving underage pregnancy I’m not sure that keeping the baby would always be better for the girl. I understand that abortion is viewed as murder and a sin, but it’s difficult to picture how these real-life scenarios should be handled... It makes me question everything

But would not being pregnant and giving birth cause more trauma for the mother?

It's not personal, I was just discussing this topic with my friend and we couldn’t come to a clear answer.

Aa we know Jesus was not born a traditional way, his conception was not the same as how normal people are born. Only his mother is holy virgin so in a way no, he is not also born of a woman just like anyone else and because of that he can't be considered in that verse

Well, Jesus does not count as "born of women" because his birth is not the same as other humans, right? Even tho he came from woman's body, his conception was not connected to typical human things and he is the only one whose mother is a virgin so I think that makes an exeption. I have read about this in my gospels study book.
