the child didnt have a choice. it is life. so why does it have to be killed for our mistakes is all im saying
but as we all know we Have choices whether or not others agree
i choose to have my kids , whatever situation they are given to me.. instead of killing them
if you chose differently i cant argue with that..
i guess it boils down to the morals that we live by

You are assuming a lot. The assumption I want to address is that the potential child would be better of alive. Isn't that the assumption here? A child is not better off with a parent or parents that don't want him/her. Foster care is not a good place for a child, in general, either. There are thousands of kids sitting in foster care waiting to be adopted - many of them are disabled. Is that better? Honestly, I don't think so. Why should the child suffer when the mother has the power at 9 weeks, 12 weeks, 16 weeks, to terminate the pregnancy?
I have never been pregnant so I haven't chosen. I think that's a language issue, but I wanted to address it. I'm not sure what angle you're coming at with that morality comment. Careful where you step there.
