@FrivolousFictioneers There's definitely not ass*ult or anything of that sort since I have written quite many fmcs with that. She does have trauma but I won't get into detail of it rn so as to not spoil it for ya

Dear @ depressed_dumps
          
          Waiting for the other updates I decided to read beyond captivity. I really like most of the book so far. But I would like to request you add another trigger warning (and if this happens in any of your other stories there too please). 
          The trigger warning I'd like to see added is 'pro-life/anti-abortion' or something similar. I notice I'm struggling with unexpectedly being confronted with the terms used to describe the characters (and perhaps your own?) beliefs concerning adoption. 
          To be absolutely clear, I'm not asking you to change your writing, nor your beliefs, I'm only requesting a trigger warning be added for such content. (My comment on that chapter might clarify why I'm struggling...) 
          Thank you for considering. 
          
          Hope you're doing well and I'll continue reading beyond captivity while waiting for updates for loathsome brothers. Have a nice day.

@PoppyLady13 I understand your reasoning and I deeply sympathize with the situation you had gone through. But my contention is, there are a lot of books preaching the idea of pro-choice, all of which do not need trigger warnings as it is —at least by most (or more vocal) Wattpad audience— believed to be the best and humane option. Trust me I like pregnancy tropes and have read a ton, even if the fmc doesn't get an abortion, it is preached as a justifiable act, so is the case with other liberal topics such as LGBTQ. But the moment a conservative pov/argument is introduced it is criticized as triggering and spreading hate. So I don't think I will be putting in any warnings, those that I believe are triggering such as miscarriage, rape etc are already in the triggers. But I can't put a trigger warning that "be careful someone might be wanting to save an innocent life ahead".

@ klerhana1  she indeed miscarried but when she decides to keep the baby before the miscarriage in the pov of the mother (Eleni) she mentions being relieved she chose to keep the baby and not choosing the 'sick option' (implying choosing abortion being sick). 
            It was much more triggering for me than I expected it to be.
