It does belong to the parents because they have a right to see their child born, instead of chopped to pieces. To mourn the death and burial of their child, as a whole baby.
You wouldn't understand unless you yourself have conceived and then lost a child I suppose. Most mothers, it would be unfathomable to do what is done to them in the process of abortion.
That 30 second life, that 4 minute life, that is owed to that child. That one breath, those few heart beats. That doesn't belong to you.
I'm sorry, how the fuck is it easier and healthier for a couple to bring to full term a malformed baby then watch it die, rather than have it gone in the first 1-2-3 months and try for another healthy one as soon as possible?
I imagine the longer the pregnancy the more time for hormones to affect the mother and stuff.
"and stuff" is actually a lot of issues and risks too... Abortion's actually the safer option on the mother.
Thankfully we in this day and age have Amniocentesis, which can be done between 15 to 20 weeks of pregnancy, while abortions can span as far as 24 weeks. Such a fate can be potentially avoided through taking the necessary precautions.
These days it can be up to us.
