I have always sad that forcing someone to endure a pregnancy - especially if they are a child - is just as morally wrong as to force a woman to have an abortion.
The baby in this case was born. But what if the girl wanted an abortion? Pro lifers, this question is for you - if the girl wanted to terminate, should she have had the right to?
She is now serving a five year prison sentence:
A BRITISH judge says a woman who was desperate for another child forced her 14-year-old daughter to get pregnant using syringes of donor sperm.
High Court judge Peter Jackson said the mother had behaved in "a wicked and selfish way" that almost defied belief.
The judge said the woman, an American divorcee living in Britain with three adopted children, hatched the plan after she was prevented from adopting a fourth.
The scheme involved getting her oldest daughter to inseminate herself with syringes of sperm purchased over the internet from a Denmark-based company, Cryos International.
Judge Jackson said the daughter, identified only as A, "became pregnant at the mother's request, using donor sperm bought by the mother, with the purpose of providing a fourth child for the mother to bring up as her own".
