Christian Views on Parental Responsibility
#11
RE: Christian Views on Parental Responsibility
Yeah, same for me: 10,13,17. Looks like this is a no-brainer from the atheist's side. I wonder how theists would respond. (Oh, Fr0d0, where are you when I need you?)

Shamelessly, I did make one with the maximum of 20 choices once. It wasn't terribly popular. At least on this one, there are really only three questions and the options only catch affiliation and one of three responses.

Although getting pregnant at 11 seems iffy, and if so I might demand she abort for safety reasons. And since the child is 11, then 17 is a no brainer

I have to agree. Being only 11 there may well be medical or psychological reasons to insist on the abortion or to avoid it. I think my choice would actually be determined more by the best judgement of what is safest for my daughter than anything else. So not really a moral consideration for me.
