Why shouldn't all late-term abortions be legal?

I didn’t even know that site existed. Is this where you go to get opinions about…anything at all?

But it, (and the corollary “I don’t wanna!”) seem to be a good enough reason to deprive a human being of their life.

I’m sure you don’t think any reason a woman gives for aborting a fetus is good enough, but so what? Your approval is not required.

I’m going to guess that you don’t have these conversations in places with members of political leanings to the right of SDMB, so you wouldn’t see other kinds of arguments. I’ve seen people post statements that say that if a woman can’t have an abortion, it is the responsibility for other people to pay for the child’s care. We would love to. That’s called adoption, and yet that’s not good enough.

I can think of one pretty obvious reason why it’s not good enough - where’s the back pay for the months of discomfort (at a minimum!) that you’re expecting the women to go though so that you can have the kids?

Conservatives note - there’s a free market solution here. I’m quite confident that there are pay rates you could set that would prevent the vast majority of abortions. Don’t be stingy now! Potential lives are at stake.

Interesting interview with a couple of prominent doctors about the phrase “late-term abortion”, the inflammatory language used by the President, and the primary reasons abortions occur in the latter months.

No, of course it’s not good enough, as there are many unwanted children that are not adopted.

If there are no children in foster care or orphanages, and every single child has found a loving home in which they are wanted, then that would be good enough.
