I don't have a problem with choice, I have a problem with a forced decision dictated by someone who has never and will never be in the same position...everyday congress goes through stupid laws being written by people that look in from the outside and dictate what is "right" and "wrong" with the ink of a pen...that my friends is not right.

I think people should have the choice to decide for themselves.

I think its a personal decision.

Freedom is paramount.

I do understand the heartache of those that can not have children. My ex brother in-law and his wife could not conceive and ended up adopting a boy.

But in reality your talking about two different situations.

There are many reasons that we can come up why one should not.

And only a few that some will say they should not.

So should a 10 year old girl that was raped by her father and ended up pregnant have to carry the baby to give it up. And go through all the hardships that they will be put through. Having friends belittle them and with the thought of others putting them down or saying they deserved it or lead the man on.

With the chance of totally messing her up mentally for the rest of her life that could even lead her to suicide all due to because she could not deal with this reality that was forced upon her.

Can you honesty say that option should not be there.

Or another case what if the woman has cancer and told if she carries the child full term there is nothing they will be able to do for her and she will die.

Yes I do know for a fact these type of cases happen all the time.

As far as the one that can't have one they do still have and option of adoption.

I think you're missing the point of what Debbie was getting at before. There are women (such as herself), who would do anything, I mean anything to have a child, but for whatever reason they can't, or the odds are highly against it.

Then you have those who can and do get pregnant, and they just throw it away, like it's nothing.

Bottom line is this, to be able to physically have kids is a blessing and a privelage, a gift, one not everyone can share in. It should be embraced, not seen as some bad, terrible thing that needs "fixing".

Yup..I agree.

Im sorry for women who are unable to have children, but because they are unable to see things objectively they should remove themselves from the debate, they have no choice, but do not have the right to impose the same limitations on other women.

Agreed, 'tis not something an 'authority' should decide, but

shouldn't both involved and affected adult parties have at least a voice?
just askin'

I vote NO for abortions

women are not incubators ...as long as men continue to believe they have the right to dictate what we can or cant do with our bodies then we continue to live under that 2nd class/property status that women have been battling against for centuries.
