Should a 10-Year-Old Girl Be Forced to Give Birth?

[Patriotic Voter]

Surely, you’re not serious.

Surely you never thought about the consequences of girls being moms.

 

[RaleBulgarian]

Abortion is always wrong under all circumstances

Wrong.

 

[Patriotic Voter]

Abortion is always wrong under all circumstances.

Blatant lie. Everyone knows that is not true except the idiots who get all of their education from Catholic and evangelical churches.

 

[RaleBulgarian]

Asserting that all pregnancies prior to age 18 should be aborted is no better than asserting that no abortions should ever be performed.

You are choosing to be totally ignorant if that is all you can say about it.

You are choosing to be a hypocrite if you stand by your comment.

Perhaps that is not something that should be legally decided by people who are incapable of being impregnated against their will?

 

[Phys251]

This poor child. Raped from the age of 6 ???

I think the protesters are aiming their anger in the wrong direction.

!0 years old? She is a child growing herself. Then a pregnancy stealing her own nutrients?

She came into the hospital because of pain. How well was the rest of the pregnancy going to go.

Makes one wonder how much of a problem some prolifers have with those who molest children.

Can a 10 year old girl nurse a baby?Do they make a training nursing bra?

I know you meant that to be humorous but given that we are talking about a 10 year old child pregnant from repeated rape it come across as crass and callous.

Agreed. Not to mention in very poor taste.

 

[year2late]

I think everyone who gets pregnant before age 18 for any reason should have an abortion.

This does not seem like a pro-choice point of view.

But my guess is that this is your personal opinion and you are not pushing this as an agenda.

That is correct. I do not push illogical agendas that take choices away from people. If I did, I would be a conservative.

My opinion is nobody can be a full-time student and stay-at-home parent at the same time. It is in the state's interest to make sure all students stay in school until they graduate. This is not possible if a girl gets pregnant and is forced to take care of her unwanted baby.

 

[Patriotic Voter]

You are choosing to be a hypocrite if you stand by your comment.

They are not comparable.

 

[RaleBulgarian]

They are not comparable.

Nonsense. They are both sides of the same coin.

You argue against others who want to stop a woman from doing as she wishes with her own body and then do a 180, asserting that every pregnancy before age 18, regardless of circumstances, be aborted.

Frankly, I find it surprising that you don’t get it.

Grown women have many more legal rights and privileges than growing girls. They are also able to make informed decisions about their lives and motherhood. Girls are dependent on their parents for all legal and medical business. So the girl legally only has the right to make certain choices before she turns 18. Do you support giving girls the right to have abortions without parental consent, but only if the parents are notified? What about requiring parental consent to have an abortion? Should she be allowed to have an abortion without anyone notifying her parents first? This is what my idea should be compared to.

 

[RaleBulgarian]

No more pretending that you’re not a hypocrite when it comes to females having dominion over their own bodies?

Grown women have many more legal rights ....

Really? Voting is the only right that I’m aware separating minors from adults. What other legal rights do women have that minor girls don’t?

.... privileges than growing girls.

Privileges are benefits extended to specific individuals/groups, but not all. Do you really consider abortion a “privilege”?

They are also able to make informed decisions about their lives and motherhood.

Far from being an absolute truth, or even mostly true. A woman of 18 isn’t automatically more informed than a girl of 17. Neither is a 20 year old woman automatically more informed than a girl of 15.

Girls are dependent on their parents for all legal and medical business.

Financially dependent, yes. Other than that, girls and boys absolutely do have legal rights over their own bodies. Parental rights/authority is not unlimited.

Do you support giving girls the right to have abortions without parental consent,

Yes.

... but only if the parents are notified?

One parent or custodial guardian.

What about requiring parental consent to have an abortion?

No.

Should she be allowed to have an abortion without anyone notifying her parents first?

Already asked and answered.

This is what my idea should be compared to.

Not at all what you previously asserted.

I think everyone who gets pregnant before age 18 for any reason should have an abortion.

 

[Patriotic Voter]

Now I get it RB: You are not an American citizen. Voting is just one of many rights only adults have. You have a lot to learn.

Not really, one is a personal opinion that women under 18 are ill-equipped for pregnancy and motherhood (hence abortion),

She is not pushing for this as an agenda to push for another woman to do against her will. Pro-life agenda is to end abortion through political action. Obliging a woman to remain pregnant against her will.

Pro-choice is about an individual being able to choose for themselves. Her having an opinion that is not contradictory.

Are you aware that there are large numbers of pro-choicers that are personally against abortion? (myself included). You can be individually against abortion, but think that is a decision for a pregnant woman to decide for herself.

Pssst ...... it’s not smart to continue pushing the accelerator to the floorboard when you’re already buried up to the axle.

The entire discussion of abortions/abortion rights is all opinion.

“Partial pro-choice” or “mostly pro-choice” isn’t pro-choice. You either support the right of bodily autonomy or you don’t.

Also, I’d argue that very few, if any, people are pro-abortion. That leaves the vast majority of us that believe (paraphrasing Bill Clinton) abortions should be safe, rare, and legal for all who make the choice.

Kendrick's "testicular bill of rights" comes after Georgia's House passed its restrictive "heartbeat ban" last week.The bill would criminalize most abortions after a doctor detects a heartbeat in the womb, which typically occurs around six weeks — compared to current state law which allows women to have legal abortions up to 20 weeks.

Require men to get permission from their sex partner before obtaining a prescription for erectile dysfunction medication.
Ban vasectomy procedures in Georgia and penalize doctors who perform them.
Make having sex without a condom an “aggravated assault” crime for men.
Require men to begin paying child support when the woman is six weeks and one day pregnant per a paternity test required at the same time.
Create a 24-hour “waiting period” for men who wish to purchase porn or sex toys in the state of Georgia.

Your continuing to make false/uninformed assertions.

List some of the “many rights” adults have that minors don’t. Take your time in considering the difference between rights and privileges, first.

"Partial pro-choice" has two meanings:

1. Supports abortion up to when the fetus is viable or the third trimester starts
2. Oppose abortion, but also opposes taking away a woman's right to have one
