Exactly my point. It's the woman or family's decision (I say family because usually when people are in a trustworthy relationship they debate what's best for both even if the decision to abort or not is ultimately on the female)

Someone tweeted Dawkins saying they didn't know what they would do. Dawkins gave his opinion. Nothing more than that really. He's not advocating any sort of legal action or eugenicist mindset, he's saying what he would do. Nothing he said is in contradiction to anything you've said. Except maybe the tone.
