And, as far as my comment on your line of reasoning, using that line of reasoning DOES lead to that conclusion logically. There are much better ways to make that argument.
Like I said earlier, what it comes down to for me is ending an innocent human life, which I think is wrong. Would the child choose a hard life over no life? We don't know, how about we give them that choice?

And if the mother
might die or have some other serious health problems? Is it not okay then because the health risks aren't definite?
So basically, you're saying that suicide is okay, but abortion isn't? That the unborn child who can't survive on its own has more rights than the mother?
