nobody is saying you are ridiculous, please accept some heating up !! you have the right to say your opinion, we have the right to say what we think ! we all live on this stupid world, we have to make it better for everybody, the raped women, the women victim of incest, the women that are very poor, the pregnant women left alone by their macho stupid males ..... ok ? so, if you can help them it's fantastic, we do not speak here about your problems !!! but about the great ones of some other women, not the little ones of the wealthy dreaming people !!
answer me please but very very honestly : do you think woman have an abortion for pleasure, I repeat for PLEASURE - for fun ????? do you really think this is all about a luxury decision ? some kind of cosmetic surgery or dental intervention ???
you do not understand a 0,0001 % of the despair of pregnant women not knowing what to do to get out of the despair !!! Shame !

I think you hit the nail on the head. if some of the posters on here *ahem* are soooo pro the "right" for a woman to choose their child's' fate..then there really would be no argument when it comes to YOUR right to choose how to act in any given scenario. The plain and simple simple truth is, they don't agree with YOUR opinion on the subject and that's it.
My opinion? It's all "me, me, me, me" these days. Not a whole lot of respect for life or those who believe in restoring it. Personally, as I've stated before, unless rape or another extreme circumstance is involved...The abortion issue in most cases, tends to seem very selfishly motivated. Use the law to justify lack of personal responsibility and accountability for ones actions resulting in the termination of a child. That's the "empowering" turn in which humanity has taken, unfortunately.edit on 6-9-2011 by Wookiep because: (no reason given)

I feel happy for you, ok ?? so let's speak now about the others that are NOT happy at al
We, or let me say I AM talking about the child. The right of the child. Once their is life growing inside you it is no longer about YOU, its now about WE. We because you now have another LIFE inside of you. When is the child old enough to be considered as a being to have a right to live? Just askin'.
and what about the right of the woman ?? doesn't she count in your eyes ?
thanks for your sympathy for the unborn, that is nice, but you also could have some sympathy with your sisters in despair no ?? oh I see, they are just woman ok ....edit on 6-9-2011 by Sunlionspirit because: (no reason given)
The right of the woman? The subject is not the woman...she is fine. She is living....she is not the one being killed!
I have sympathy for my sisters....hell I am the one my friends call on because they know I CARE. They know I will be there.....
I have visited the grave of my niece who was only 10 weeks old. We buried her and believe she would have been something to really brag about but she was not able to come into this world. She died while in the womb. She was not terminated....she died. Had she been given the chance at life ....man....what would she have been like? I think about those babies who didn't have that chance. They were doomed by circumstances and killed. The choice is up to the mom...true enough. BUT....it still doesn't make it any prettier.
There comes a time when you have responsibility for others and put yourself aside for the brother/sister/child/uncle/nephew and so on. Once life begins to grow it is not about just the one life....there is now two.
We are talking about the unborn that has no rights. No one cares about the one they cannot see, hold, hear cry, because then it would be too hard to kill it.

In most cases no, I don't think women have abortions for pleasure. Then again, I can't judge every scenario, but that is my opinion. I think most women believe they are doing it for the right reasons, but that doesn't make it all better. Looking at this objectively, we all have times of "despair" and have to make hard decisions. Money, age, having hard times is no reason to kill off a child. There are too many EXCUSES and lack of accountability these days.
Just think of the mother who devotes her entire life to their disabled child..Do they kill it because it's "hard"?? I take a strong stance on this. Abortion should be a very last resort and only in extreme cases. Take a look at my post here. Tons of teenagers are put in similar situations every year, and it's not the end of the world. There are other options to consider first, you can't just go "oh well I can't do this, let's head to the clinic!"edit on 6-9-2011 by Wookiep because: (no reason given)

If a man wants to give his opinion to his pregnant lady and let his desires be known, that's fine, but he can't FORCE the woman to comply with his wishes.
Thanks for sharing your opinion. But why should the fetus' rights overrule the woman's rights?
You can put words in my mouth that I didn't say, but it's not making ME look silly.

come on, come on, you are comparing and mixing everything together you compare the death of a poor little child, fruit of LOVE, with the rape of a woman, the incest of a girl .... how can you compare the fruit of LOVE with the despair of a woman victim of evil actions ... man man man, you mix it all up !! of course everybody is sad about your story, but it isn't about that kind of story here ..... have peace and joy, have mercy with the others.

What about the father? He has no rights.. He has no ability to choose to the affirmative or negative of the untimely execution (or termination if you prefer) of his unborn child...
He has no say in whether or not his blood line will continue in the miracle that he has helped create...
And on the subject of babies as a result of rape...
I know a guy that I went to school with a long time ago that was the result of a rape.. He is an upstanding individual and very well liked... His mother decided that even though his father is a coward and the lowest form of life that her child should not be the one to pay for it...
I would say that woman is a billion times stronger than any woman that decided to abort their child... Especially pregnancies termination even though they were the result of a night of hot, steamy, wild, kinky and crazy willing participation...

But there you go, you said it! "killing a living person is murder ". How can you say that, yet still advocate a woman's "right" to decide that or not? See, that's the problem right there. You think a woman should have a right to kill their child and I don't (unless one of the extreme circumstances is present), period.edit on 6-9-2011 by Wookiep because: (no reason given)

Death of a child? It was not born...just so we are clear. She had been in the womb for only ten weeks. We buried her because she was a child to US.
I think the one that has it all mixed up is YOU. You are running off at the "keyboard" with a reply before you comprehend what is being conveyed.
Lets be clear on another thing...we are NOT talking about the act, we are talking about the life that was created when the "act" occurred. Whether it was a good act or not....it created life. LIFE...not death. The woman now has to NOT think of herself and think of the LIFE that is growing inside of her. If she chooses to kill it....so be it. It is HER choice and not anyone elses. This is the law....so you have your way already.

I cannot support being pro choice mostly because the fathers of those child have no rights, no choice and no say in whether or not their flesh and blood are doomed to the slaughter..
Perhaps (even with how anti-abortion I am) I would be more willing to listen to ludicrous arguments on the behalf of women if men were even remotely considered..
