Sure, all good methods, if you are in a relationship or having consensual sex, but what about rape victims, young girls and when the mother's life is in danger?

Teach a child to fish and you feed him for a lifetime

Fishing, of course only with barbless hooks, we gotta give the fetus, shit I mean fish, a sporting chance.

Two part question. I guess it's alright to watch a person die as soon as one can perceive visually. I don't think it's OK to kill a person except to "justly" preserve life, but if that happens, age doesn't matter. So I will find a fish justified in killing a person in defence of it's own life.

My answer to these two questions is the same.
Abstinence. Contraception. Education. Natural Family Planning (women are infertile through ~95% of their menstrual cycle ). Did I miss anything? Anal sex. Oral sex. Watch Sports.

Sell the house. Sell the car. Get a job. Welfare. Social Aid. Church assistance. General charity. Subsidised child care. Etc.

None. Other than adoption at birth. It is not fair on a child for their parents to abandon them. Once a child is adopter the parents do NOT have the right to abandon the child. Here's a .

Well one friend of mine was 21 or 22 when he killed his mum, does that count? He stabbed her dozens of times - to death. He served 22 months in Belconnen remand centre and was freed - he never saw the inside of a gaol. Here's his picture:

I say let them have abortions, mainly from a stance of practicality. If we can get it down to this portion of cases that's a big step in the right direction.

The woman who was raped is most certainly a victim.Part of injustice done to the woman includes carrying the child to term, which seems like a better alternative than taking an innocent life. How does following one crime with another that shreds an unborn child's body make any sense?

In this case I'm all for the life that has developed into an (hopefully!) adult individual and so not care much for the cell clump that has the potential to become a human being. Rape is bad enough as it is, a woman should not need to be reminded of it for the next nine months what happened, and carry a rapist genetic material to the next generation. If she wants to keep it I don't mind, it's her choice, but I can never judge a woman who wants to abort a rape pregnancy.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Continue to fuck over the victim...some system of ethics you have there Chad.
Immediately terminating an unwanted pregnancy after rape could hardly be described as "shredding an unborn child's body".
