Why do you expect women to sacrifice everything they have- their body, their time, their mental, physical, and financial wellbeing- for a could-be child that they don’t even want/can’t take care of? It’s not selfish to want to have full control over your own body and face it- even though a fetus is developing its own body, it is still dependent on the person who’s womb it’s found its way into.

Children don’t just ‘find their way’ into their mother’s womb. Whether conceived by love, lust, or rape, a prenatal child has no choice but to be right where they are.
And once they are there, living and growing, I absolutely expect his or her mother to make the sacrifice of pregnancy to protect and nurture them. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp? Why is killing another human being so easy for you?
