You know if moms could kill their children after they're born (besides post natal abortion, I'm talking older than a few minutes here) and we gave pro choicers' mothers the chance to "abort" them, you'd bet your ass pro choicers would be backpeddling because you know damn well most of their mothers didn't want them in the first place.

My mother tried for a very long time to conceive a child before she became pregnant with me.
And even if she hadn't, I'm not going to sit here and get off on the thought I'm only alive because my mother was denied the right to medical autonomy and had no other choice like Anon apparently does.
Hi! You're a moron!
(1) There is no such thing as a "post natal abortion." In fact, the term is its own contradiction.
(2) Your argument against abortion is so weak it boils down to, 'How would you like it if your mother killed you after you were born? ?' (...which you of course follow with a gratuitous insult about how everyone who is pro-choice was the result of unwanted pregnancy - because you're a fucking moron.)
A born child is not relying on someone else's internal organs, blood, and constant consideration for survival. A fetus must. That's not sufficient information to determine whether the latter has rights, but it is enough to demonstrate that the rights of a born person - especially one who is sentient - over-match any competing rights a fetus might have.
No, most people don't think that about their mothers, I'm sure. And I'll bet that almost all mothers have bad days when they are really, really tempted.... Except, of course, fundie mothers-of-many, who can always turn a squalling infant over for the six-year-old to play with, the seven-year-old to dress and feed, and the eight-year-old to educate.
If mothers could legally kill their children at any age there would be a lot more Fundies doing it, because the Bible allows it under certain circumstances.
@ Hotspur
Mine said the exact same thing.
No, no, no, most pro lifers are not even in favor of third trimester abortions except in cases where life of the mother and child are in danger and saving one life is preferred to losing both.
All you are g is demonizing an enemy you already don't like.
Your wish and supposedly nasty origin story doesn`t make it true for the rest of us. Both me and my sis were desired and celebrated by our whole extended family.
If you`ve learned the only thing keeping your mother from terminating you was some religious/social ostracism thing, I`m fucking sorry for you. I really am. Still then you`re perfect example of why kids should be wanted in the first place.
Idiot, no-one is going to go through carrying a baby and pushing it out because they don't want it, and only the most clueless of morons could suggest they would. Those that are unwanted are aborted long before they become a physical burden on the mother, for obvious reasons.
You know if moms could kill their children after they're born ...
The right-to-lifers actually do kill children after they're born by consistently objecting to any kind of welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, etc., even though it's the innocent child who suffers along with the mother. To them, the baby isn't a person; it's a pawn and an albatross around the mother's neck to punish her for having had sex.
I am pro-choice and so is my mother. We were both very loved and cherished by our parents. Your hypothesis is bullshit.
And for the record, I love my mother as a human being in her own right. If I learned that she had ever had an abortion, I would not change my opinion of her or of abortion itself.
Moms can kill their children after they're born. It just illegal, not impossible.
What do you mean with post-natal abortion?
My mother is pro-choice and she chose to have four children, all of us very much loved, wanted, expected and cherished.
It's pro-choice, not pro-abortion, btw.
No such thing as 'besides post natal abortion'.
You however, are a walking advert for a Retroactive Abortion!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
