Why do they call it pro-choice when the child thats getting aborted doesnt get a choice? amirite?

all the people disagreeing to this need to think about how they would feel if they got aborted

by Anonymous 14 years ago

If we got aborted we just wouldn't be here, simple as that. We wouldn't care because we wouldn't know we were aborted because we wouldn't even know that we could have been alive.

they can feel it if the abortion is later in the pregnacy

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I wouldn't be able to feel on account of not having a central nervous system.

(Lieutenant Sarcsm): they have the choice to murder an innocent child that has no say in whether they live or not

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It is not murder and it is not a child

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(Lieutenant Sarcsm): yes the mother has a choice, but the baby still doesn't. it's not clever, it's the truth.

Because the majority of the rime, the baby is a sack of cells without the ability to think about it. Yes, some abortions happen later in pregnancy, but generally not, therefore the 'baby' has not developed a thinking or feeling function.

what if youre best friend had been aborted you wouldnt know what your missing but your life would still never be as good as it would have been

by Anonymous 14 years ago

If you had been aborted. I doubt anyone would really care.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, because a baby can make a choice in the first place right? (sarcasm!)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

if they could they would choose life

by Anonymous 14 years ago

they may well choose not to be born to a mother who doesn't want it

ever heard of adoption? you know when people who actually want the kid can have it

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Take a second and actually think about the terrible state of the adoption and foster care system. Not every baby will get adopted. Some will grow older in foster care and be abused and tossed about from home to home. Many will commit suicide.

I'm sure it would be excellent for a child to know their father raped its mother. And a wonderful experience for a rape victim to birth their rapist's baby. In short, abortion is necessary in some cases. Pro-choice!

But why would anybody wait three months to abort if they were a rape victim. It's called the day after pill. Sperm takes 3 days to reach the egg.

It doesn't always work and not everyone has access to it.

But why punish the kid for something some other terrible person did?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Any woman who has sex for whatever reason is a "terrible person"? Sexist bastard.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

their point is why punish the kid for the parents fault. im assuming though i cant be sure they were talking if it were a case of rape why punish the kid

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Sex isn't someone's "fault" it's not a bad thing. The "kid" is just a small mass of cells with no brain capacity or even developed organs. Why must we "punish" women by forcing them to have kids?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I generally agree with you, but I thought they were referring to the rapist father... Either way, I'm not gunna have my rapist's baby.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

They aren't dying!

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Like my skin cells. They are born, they die. No one cares because they aren't all that important.

Okay, I'll go back in time and tell my then 14 year old cousin she should of had her child/half-sibling.

you dont have to abort the baby but you dont have to keep it either. ever heard of adoption

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i dont think the kid would choose to be stuck with a shit family

by Anonymous 14 years ago

theyd like it better than death

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Unless they grow up and kill themselves because they hate their shit situation and abusive family.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

well first of all its better than death second of all its called adoption or foster care or if their life is really that bad they can take their life away themselves

by Anonymous 13 years ago

And its not the baby's fault that their mom was raped. Adoption would be the right choice over abortion.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

(Beck(:): not if meeting them made you sick

by Anonymous 14 years ago

(Beck(:): how do you know it would be adopted?? heard of foster homes?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

by Anonymous 14 years ago

by Anonymous 14 years ago

You don't know the woman. You don't know her life. You don't know anything about her situation. You don't know what the woman is going through. You don't know what this woman's options are. You don't know anything about this woman or her pregnancy at all. You can't possibly know that adoption is the right choice for her. The woman is the expert in this situation so you should butt out and let the woman choose what is right for her.
