Again, I ask, do you feel that a 7 month old fetus/baby is deserving of life and, yet, when unborn, it's fine for the mother to decide whether the child can live or die? Does this make sense to you? Do you agree with it? Why is it ok for the mother to make a decision about whether the child lives or dies, when it is at the same stage of development and life? Premature babies have also been born at far less than 7 months' gestation. It is considered gross negligence on the part of the parents if they don't try to save the chld's life.
