I remember reading this thread a long time back.. and thinking abt it for hrs. and hrs. and now its here all of a sudden to make me think all over again!! Well personally I agree with Rose to some extent. I mean abortion shud be a choice for every individual.. If a mother doesnt want a baby and STILL has to give birth to it.. I think that both of their lives wil be spoilt. They wont be able to accept each other.. but I dont think that means that when 2 ppl are happily marrried and ready for a baby.. the mother shud say that she does not want a baby.maybe for her figure or some absurd reason!! that wil be taking away the guy's happiness and rights over THEIR baby. So as a whole it shoud be the couple's decision.. AND the lady shud have a say in it Some other explanations to legalize abortion would me some prevailing health conditions and so on.. so its not a matter of whats right or wrong!! its a matter of time and what is right at THAT time!!
