but you are assuming that all abortions are done because of the "fear of responsibility" and thats SO not true! Many abortions are VERY justified in fact I would say pretty much most of them..when it becomes a regular method of birth control, then and ONLY THEN do I see it as unjustifiable.....

"Try and justify murder? That is exactly what abortion is" That life begins at conception is an opinion, and not one that all of us believes in. It's my opinion that "life" begins when there is a reasonable chance of viability, when major organs are formed & when there is a soul present. When or even if there is a soul we'll never really know, but viability & functioning organs doesn't happen until further into a pregnancy. Early terminations are not "babies" and there for can not be "killed".

It is not justifiable to kill your own child just because of fear of the responsibility that you are about to face. It was irresponsible to get pregnant at an age that you still dont want to have a child, dont correct a mistake by doing another wrong by killing your own child. but if the conception of the child could cause complications and could probably kill the mother then that would be another question.

I would not kill my child regardless of the circumstances. If I can't take care of it, I will give it to someone who can, like a family member or something like that.

Abortion is wrong no matter what the reason is. That baby is innocent and should not suffer. I know if a woman has been attacked an pregnancy is a result of it that has got to be awfully hard on her, but abortion is not the answer. If a woman doesn't want to face responsibility of a baby she should keep herself pure before marriage because that is always a possibility. However, if she does become pregnant and doesn't want the baby, please give it up for adoption. There are so many couples out there who can't have children who would love to have one.
