[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I am an outlier, but not planning on my kid getting pregnant at college. But I'm in full support of banning abortion after 15 weeks- I have trouble how parents feel otherwise. You KNOW what this fetus becomes. At 15 weeks we know enough that the fetus is capable of feeling, so really don't understand how people can be pro-abortion at this point. Totally understand f-ups happen and the women shouldn't bear the brunt of it for life if they aren't ready but 15 weeks is plenty of time to stop things before it turns into a human that feels pain.

What specifically are you doing to help prevent an unplanned pregnancy when your adult child is in college?  Abstinence only answers not accepted.[/quote]

Birth control pills. But if they did get pregnant, they would't be waiting months to have an abortion. [/quote]

They will probably be outlawed next because they “kill.” [/quote]

Can you stop with the outlandish reach?  [/quote]

Oh, good - another person who hasn’t been paying attention[/quote]

Oh good - another person who is using ridiculous scare tactics that have no basis. [/quote]

I’m not the PP arguing with you. But, the elimination of birth control is not a scare tactic; it is a logical extension from the idea that life begins at conception. Birth control pills do not prevent fertilization. Eggs can be fertilized while using birth control (and things like the copper IUD, which is non-hormonal), but they create environments where the egg will not implant in the wall of the uterus. Because of these facts, and because of logic, the most strict pro-lifers believe birth control pills “kill” a viable, fertilized egg.

I wouldn’t be so sure that your daughter will have access to birth control in the states where abortion is banned. It makes sense for these states to also not believe in birth control. That’s why people are worried about it. [/quote]
