What about the right to choice?
It bothers me to see so many people express concern for the ‘ life of the unborn child’ when discussing abortion up to 12 weeks.
What about the life of the person carrying the ‘child’? Do they not matter?
I see no concern for the person who cannot carry a baby to term for their own medical wellbeing, no concern either for the life of a family with children already who simply cannot afford to have another mouth to feed, body to clothe etc.
I never see any concern for the pregnant teen who just needs more time to start her own life before bringing another one into the world.
The student to who needs to finish her studies, the victim of rape who cannot possibly go on, the parents of a baby with an FFA…. The list goes on. Where’s the concern for these living, breathing humans? Love both? I don’t think so.
