What I'm not understanding about your way of thinking is that you are essentially saying that newborns and children are to be treated the same as adults. There's a reason why kids aren't allowed to drive, drink alcohol, or even watch certain media: They do not have the same standing, mentally or otherwise, as adults do.

The fetus relies on nutrients from the pregnant mother for growth and breastfeeding after born. It's not even remotely close to if anyone else made entitled claims to people's labor.

From a legal perspective I think children should be treated like what they are, humans. Yes they do require more care than most, not all, adults.

What this comes down ultimately is that from your perspective a women should not be allowed to choose what to do with her body. She should be penalized legally for abortion

I think otherwise, I own my body and I don't think anyone including an unborn baby has the right to tell me what to do with it.

Tbh this isn't an issue I'm even that passionate about. It won't ever effect me or 99.9 percent of the population. Dont like abortions......don't have one
