It means, quite simply, that I support a woman's right to choose.
I would support abortion. Call me a baby killer if you like, I can take it. I mean, it is what it is. In most cases, I would hazard to guess, it is an UNwanted pregnancy. Accidents happen: condoms break, the pill was ineffective, etc...
I would support life.....

I should start by saying I am very much anti-abortion, I can see very few instances where abortion can be justified, in fact almost none.

The one exception I would have is where the birth will cause the death of the mother; in those circumstances I think it is justifiable for the medical professionals to advise an abortion other than its wrong.

I just think it is wrong; I don’t need to bible to tell me murder is wrong, so I don’t need it to tell me abortion is wrong.

I have a neighbour who has just had a child at 24 weeks, the child is alive and the doctors say is doing well.

Again, on the abortion thing. I am in full support of a woman's choice to have to to terminate, who would I be to tell and judge what a woman can and can not do with her body !!!

I wanted to have my daughter and nobody could talk me out of it. She is the best thing in my life. But, I knew that I couldn't do it again. My plate was abundantly full. I don't know how I could have survived if I had been forced to have another child that I would "give away".
Do you think forcing a woman to carry and give birth to a child and then give it away isn't inhumane? Is a woman a baby maker first and an individual second?
Does the mother of the child you are talking about have a connection with that child, or did she just donate it? How many men would be capable of such an act? How many men want to be trapped into parenthood?

I am just as strongly opposed to the lack of support. We need to be there for those women who do not terminate. I have helped someone and offered to take her (unborn) child into my family, either as a temporary or permanent measure. She went on to have the child who is very much wanted now.
Even after all you have been through I am sure that you cannot imagine not having your daughter in your life.
This we can agree on. I would make Paternal DNA testing MANDATORY. Child support MANDATORY - - - or go to a tent jail and be assigned to a chain gang road crew.
I would make it law that at least 80% of child support must be supported by receipts that show it benefited the child/children.
You can't force someone to care for their child - - but you can sure make them fully responsible.
I have yet to have any man in this forum support Mandatory Paternal DNA testing.

Well...a nice little personal story for us to all feel sorry for you, huh?
Sorry...I don't feel bad for you, I feel disgusted by your actions...but I don't feel bad for you.
I wonder how your daughter will react when she finds out you killed her baby sister??? Oh, that is if you tell her...you should right...it was just a "fetus"...nothing to feel bad about...right?
And now I will get flamed...but why??? It was just a parasitic fetus...right?? There should be no "guilt" or anything....that is unless it is more than just a "fetus".

No...That woman would be an idiot. And I speak of experience. One of my cousin's mother was a coc aine addict and snorted during her pregnancy, my cousin was born with severe deformities of one leg, it had to be amputated at birth, he was a typical coc aine addict baby, had to be weened off. He now suffered from "extreme" ADHD and OCD, doctors relate those to the conditions he had to endure in the womb.

OH THE HYPOCRISY IS TOO MUCH.
Where is the man's CHOICE??? Why can't the man decide that this baby would "ruin his life"???
Let me guess....he made that choice when he decided to have sex...right??? Yeah, so did the women.
You make me laugh...in a sad way.

Was this "woman" arrested and imprisoned for the severe abuse and misery that she inflicted?
Probably not, it was "her body" afterall.
