Pro-choice - I need help with arguments

[JonDarbyXIII]

An abortion is, ultimately, a potentially life-threatening procedure and should then be performed with consent by an adult.

I think this is the crux of the problem. As much as I hate the idea of a parent using religion to force their teenage child to give birth, the ultimate point is that it is a medical condition. ('medical condition' is the very point that is used the most by those defending a woman's choice in the matter.)

I don't like the idea of legislating the details of parenthood any more than I like the idea of legislating bedroom proclivities, but the problem is there nonetheless. I think the best course of action (and maybe, unfortunately, the only course of action) is to continue to fight for the rights of women and against religions' hold on them. I can only hope that by doing this, more and more parents will come to acknowledge that this is a medical condition with which their child needs help instead of viewing it as a shameful sign of sin against their god.
