"We’re pro-life," the father told the Detroit Free Press. "Under no circumstance do we believe you should take a child's life. She sacrificed her life for the child."

People should have a choice as long as they can actually take responsibility for their choices. I hope he did not bet on getting free care or charity care. Who does he expect will pay for the full amount of mefical care costs for this 1 pound micropremie being in the hospital? The last premie story I read was that the hospital bill came out to over a million dollars.

I hope this father pays back every cent of medical costs to the hospital. He should take responsibility for their choice not to terminate. Choice? Choice to burden everyone else? Laughable. Irresponsible.

So I assume you feel that mothers on public assistance should also be forced to have abortions, or be forced to pay back every cent of free medical care or other assistance they receive?[/quote]

I also assume that if she had thrown herself in the path of a bullet to protect another child, you would be hailing her as a hero and have no problem with her medical care? You can't force someone to have treatment, and you can't force someone to get an abortion. If you do neither in situation, you wind up with a gestating mother who could die at any time, and eventually did, at a point when her fetus could have saved but wasn't full term. It happens. If you're not part of the family, it's none of your business.

Agree it should not have been the subject of a fawning news article, however, as there is no heroism here -- just people doing what they needed to do.[/quote]
