There is a movement right now of people trying to promote after birth abortions (infanticide). Saying that Infants aren't people because they have no recognition of who they are or what they're becoming... there for it should be "okay" for mother or father to end their life even after they are born.
They argue that it should be legal because What if that baby's existence in the family directly effects those already existing in the family's well-being. IE - The parents cannot afford another child, the child is born with a disability....
Isn't take what abortion is for... those women and families who are not yet ready, or capable of brings a child into the world... or maybe another. Or fetal screenings... those tell you what disabilities your baby may have and you have the option to terminate... Why wait until after birth....
infanticide is murder, really murder... not a bunch of emotional people calling it murder. *cough* pro lifers *cough*
