The linked study is way more interesting
2/3 teen pregnancy end in abortion.
I do think this is a strong confounder, but very very interesting results
While I’m not an expert in anything vaguely related, I would bet that those “adverse life/childhood experiences” have more of a causal effect on lifespan than the abortions.
Yes, confounders are variables which influence the outcome in a causal model but can't be separated out
