I pity your children, and I mean that in the nicest way.

crabcake said:You're almost right. Personally, I'm anti-abortion for myself, and I would hope no one I love or care about would have one ...
however ... that doesn't give me the right to tell them what to do because every situation is different and every person has different circumstances; therefore, my stance is pro-choice.

getthefacts said:You don't really believe that do you? Last time I checked the statistics most people in the United States believe that abortion is wrong and should be made illegal or very difficult to use.
getthefacts said:You sound like John Kerry. I'm personnaly opposed to murder but if you want to murder somebody then that's your free choice. Either you want to defend life or you want to kill the unborn. There is no middle ground.

elaine said:Oh, so if someone murders your children, then they shouldn't get the death penalty?
fixedelaine said:I hope you don't have robots.
getthefacts said:I don't believe in the death penalty either. They should be punished but killing them itsn't going to help me or them. Who knows, maybe after they spend 20 years in jail they will realize what they did was wrong and seek forgiveness and possibly save their soul from eternal damnation.

I would have a problem with this, most would. No one is saying this is 'right'. However, my life rests upon my mother and her choice. If she has the ability to bring me into this world she also has the ability to take me out of this world. When I rest inside her and depend on her while in the womb it is her choice, I am a part of her. If I am born, as soon as I am born I have certain rights. I am attached to her no more, I may not ever see her again.getthefacts said:Logically then, if I call up your Dad right now and offer him a hundred bucks to end your life then you wouldn't have a problem with that?
That's funny.getthefacts said:You sound like John Kerry. I'm personnaly opposed to murder but if you want to murder somebody then that's your free choice. Either you want to defend life or you want to kill the unborn. There is no middle ground.
I know; just restating my stance for the s.MMDad said:That is what most people on here have said, including me.
I thought the phrase "eye for an eye" appeared in the good book.getthefacts said:I don't believe in the death penalty either. They should be punished but killing them itsn't going to help me or them.

I'm not debating abortion b/c we simply have different beliefs; therefore, we'll never agree. :shrug:
HOWEVER, when it comes to my child (who, again, I did NOT abort, mind you), I am the parent; I make the rules; I decide when it's appropriate for her to learn things and whey she's too young; and I decide whether or not to brainwash her (as you choose to do for your kids) or let her develop her own ideas of what is right or wrong in accordance with the laws. Unless you want me to stand in front of your house and display "101 Ways to Have Lovely Relations With your Significant Other" for your child to see, then I suggest you respect my wishes and position as MY child's parent and let me be her parent.
