If you have an abortion that's killing a living thing...even if it's still developing you are killing a LIVING THING. Not a bug or something, it's a human. (2)
I suppose I take back that the mother should not put him/her up for adoption, I think that actually would be okay (after I thought about it) (3) but I see and watch things where there are 15 year old girls who TRY to get pregnant (that's their goal, not just un-protected sex) and then they want to get an abortion right after they found out...It's disgusting, just bring something to life, and then killing it.

1) So essentially the baby is just a punishment for having sex. That's wonderful to know--I'm quite certain that an unwanted baby will most certainly grow up with minimal amounts of neglect, abuse and mental screwups.
And it's not like teens have a lot of choices, you know. Besides the fact that abstinent-only education is all but being forced on these teens, BC isn't easy to get in the first place. Pharmacies don't have to hand out BC if they don't want to and can cite "religious reasons" as though it's valid. It's their job, not their temple, first of all. Second of all, this just ENCOURAGES "promiscuity." Kids are going to have sex--so we can either educate them on how to REDUCE their chances of getting pregnant, or we can let them screw like rabbits and then wonder why everything goes to hell.
2)No, it's not a human. It's a fetus. It's human in nature, but it itself is not a human. If anything, it's parasitic in nature, draining on the mother's nutrients, strength and resources whether she gives consent or not.
3)See what I've said about adoption, since I've hardly seen anyone refute the fact that the adoption system is pretty much FUBAR if you're an older, minority or special needs child.
4) Not to be snide, but as they say, "Pics or it didn't happen."
