People shouldn''t have kids they can''t afford. With the current economy and state of the world I don''t understand why anyone would want to bring a child into this world. Think about what the childs life will be like in 30-50 years from now.

Actually, it was the father who did it in one case, doesn''''t he have rights in the decision?

Ahh, but there, don''t you run the risk of forcing a woman into a state of which she does not want to be. Being pregnant isn''t all fun and games. I can''t imagine being pregnant against my will. It would be hell to feel like nothing more than a walking incubator. But, then again, you are stamping out the man''s right as a father. Touchy Touchy.

On a side note, I do think it strange that the same people who support aborting a fetus are outraged by someone killing a woman and her unborn child. Does it suddenly become a child when it wasn''''''''t the mother''''''''s choice?

If it''''s any help the former would be a womens legal choice and the ladder would be considered a crime (merder/manslaughter and the like). I believe Roe v Wade would be pertinent reading...........

I read Roe vs. Wade when I wrote an 18 page paper on abortion for my ethics class. What I''m saying here is that most believe that what is in the womb is NOT a human being. So why would someone who doesn''t believe that it''s a human being call it an unborn child only when it''s not the mother''s decision to have the baby killed? Actually, it was the father who did it in one case, doesn''t he have rights in the decision?

Extremely good point! I love the hypocracy when it comes to so called ethical decisions! Honestly, I think we have exterminated darwinism, and it seems to have suddenly become our responsibility to thin the herd. Think about the natural world. In many animals, in hard times, if a female animal becomes pregnant, and there is not enough food that season, the female''s body naturaly aborts the unborn animal. We''ve taken over that part of nature through science, and so now there is no weeding out of the weak or ill equiped. I suggest everyone watch the movie Idiocracy. Very funny, very true.

Gotta love the grey zone. Hence the right to choose

Obviously humans were created with the ability to make choices and most of us were created with a conscience, so I agree that people can make choices concerning their life, I also feel that people need to take responsibility for their choices. Although it seems in today''s world most people don''t want to take responsibility for their actions. Which is too bad.

Doctors agree that 8 babies were conceived by her taking fertility drugs not by implantation


Consider this.

Why would a doctor implant eight fertilized embryos in the womb of a young woman who already has 6 children? At the cost of $20K-$25K a pop, and on the county dole?

A woman who lives with her parents.

There are too many holes in this story.
