   I feel that it is entirely up to the woman.  I'd rather we as society   
   weren't sending the message to people that abortion is another means of   
   birth control, but I suppose putting morals into their heads will suffice.   
   The woman has the right to abort her child, up until a point.  That's the   
   law.  After a certain formative period, the fetus is considered a human life   
   as recognized nation-wide by law.  Afew weeks is plenty of time for the   
   mother to consider whether or not having the child is the best choice, or   
   not.  However, people do make mistakes.  It only takes a moment to become   
   pregnant.  Merely conceiving the child is not sufficient grounds to insist   
   she should become a mother.  It is her choice.
