I think parental responsibility starts with not killing your children.
People who kill their children on purpose, if caught, go to prison..

Don't bother, AB. Sky smells like a sock
I don't care what people do with their own bodies.
I am however, concerned about what they do to children. If you don't want to take care of your own baby, other people are going to intercede for it. That's the way this works. People who victimize vulnerable populations tend to come under unfavorable scrutiny.
this difference is that pro lifers and pro choicers have a differing opinion on when life begins whether it is at conception, or at birth and i do not think this will ever change.
in regards to what other people do to their children, i surely hope that you are involved in every child advocacy group available to you, volunteer your time at schools and churches and after school programs. so that you can be involved and make changes in the lives of all children. because it seems to me honestly that your child advocacy starts and stops with birth.
should you not be pushing for more parental responsibility? making sure the children are taught values and get a good education? are you adopting children? are you a foster parent? what exact impact are you having on the children of america?
@JBuekema - do you have any real opinions on the matter, or are you simply too ignorant to come up with anything beside insults? btw which any loon behind a computer can do, it wont get you anywhere in life and i suspect it hasnt yet.
It's not a medical decision. In fact, it carries medical risks with it, aside from the certainty of death for one person involved.
I never said I would physically stop women from getting abortions, whether legal or illegal. And murder is murder, whether legal or illegal. The murders of the Jews by the Nazis was perfectly legal. It's still murder. Likewise the murder of babies is murder whether it's legal or not.

like i said your definition of children and the pro choicer definition of children is different and will never change.
i do enjoy how have ignored 90% of my argument, it seems to me like you have a very narrow focus of solely advocating for fetuses and not actual living breathing children.
a child is not a child until it can live and breathe on its own, not while it is still dependent on its mother for life.
im not telling you what to do with your life, im simply stating that you claim to be such an advocate for unborn children, why are you not an advocate for living children? i dont see you crusading for parental responsibility.....
You don't even have an argument. Is telling me I should be involved in child advocacy an "argument"?
Whereas you can just shrug and say, "Not my problem. I TOLD them to kill the kid right away, so my job here is done."

no i asked the question as to if you care as much about living children as unborn children and you simply failed to answer. if you care as much about living children, i asked if you were involved in child advocacy? do you volunteer at school, and after school programs. do you promote parental responsibility and have children removed from unfit parents.
it seems to me that all you do is campaign against abortion, but you dont follow that same passion when it comes to actually affecting the lives of children.
"I am however, concerned about what they do to children."
those are your exact words. if that is really your concern, what else are you doing to help the children beside campaigning against abortion?
Campaigning to save their lives isn't enough?

what if their quality of life is in the gutter? are you gonna take care of that child when a parent cant? what if they are neglected or abused? what if they die from poverty? what are you doing about that?

i have no right to tell a parent how to raise their child, and neither do you. i also have no right to tell a woman what she can and cant do with her body, as that is her choice. that is the underlying argument here.
if you want to have the moral argument, that is a separate issue, as obviously your morals and my morals differ. thats not to say yours are better or worse than mine, they are just different.
the major difference between us is that i can take the anger and emotion out of my argument and stick to the legal facts, as you can not.

You have no RIGHT to prevent a parent from hurting his or her child?
Really? So if you heard your neighbor abusing his kid, you would just ignore it?
Never mind, I know the answer.

Honestly, I have no idea what she thinks I didn't respond to.

a fetus is not a child, sorry if you fail to accept that, and that is the basis of your argument
