Because the unborn child is the victim of their selfish choices at that point.

If only it was that black and white of a situation. Nothing is ever that clean cut and easy, you know that.

As we start to push towards restricting abortions or outright banning them in a lot of states, in response I'd ask what about universal health care, universal child care, paid leave for parents, etc. What about social service programs like head start, food stamps, heap, are we going to expand those programs too? Don't give me the sanctity of life routine if it doesn't involve actually providing for the kids after they are born. In these areas we have a lot of work to do.
