Firstly, birth control fails. I have defied three very good methods, myself; although, my ovaries should probably be inducted into the Ovarian Hall of Fame. -- Retzilian
As I mentioned in the other post; some cases are hard. But this one is not so hard.
You are saying "girl has accident" and decides to have baby killed. I am not on board with that; especially since she only has 9 months of "slavery" and then can give baby up for adoption.
I like government to stay completely out of these things and would vote in my state to keep the option open for women who decide to kill the baby. I would let karma dish out the punishment; but I would never call it a mere "choice" as if you were picking out a restaurant.
Speaking of which, I must leave and take my own aged mother to lunch. She gave me life at an early age and it would have been better for her personally to not do it. (the jokers out there are thinking "better for all of us")
