I couldn’t understand the reaction on the UNC campus of the women who attacked the pro life group that had photos of late term abortions. If you are pro choice you need to accept the outcome of your position. You can’t hide from it and those photos show the outcome.This situation your friend had sounds quite different from the situation I described (which by the way is not just a hypothetical made up story). In your friend's case, it sounds like baby was healthy but due to issues with the mother, both the mother and baby's life were at risk. No, I don't presume to tell your friend she should have aborted. But I do think that decision was hers to make, and not mine. Do you think you should have made the decision for your friend? Or do you think it was okay that she made her own medical decision? And I still want to know what you will tell my non-hypothetical example why you deserve to make her medical decision?
I am pro choice and believe that moral and ethical decisions should be made by the individual and not the government but the individual must know what the outcome of the decision could be.
