  • Lia, honey, you do not abort a baby who is ALREADY born. That is out of the mother's womb. So your arguements are tremendously flawed. Of course no woman would kill their baby that was already born and out of the womb. That would be murder. And no, the womans' rights trumps the fetus'. The fetus doesn't have any rights. if you know anything about law, a child, anyone under 18, their rights are limited. Even they don't have the same rights an adult would have

  • @DoubleR2591 If you are challenging the humanity of the unborn child, I would invite you to take a look at my other video called "Are the Unborn Humans?" And I agree, children's right are limited. But so are the rights of adults. For example, an adult may not kill someone else, because that infringes on the other person's rights. So, if the unborn child is a human, it also has rights, so a woman shouldn't be allowed to kill it. But also, as a side point, although many rights are limited based...

  • @FyreFoxXP on age, the right to life is never limited. So my point is, why is it okay to kill an unborn child one minute before it's born, when it's obviously not okay to kill a newborn child?

  • @FyreFoxXP I have watched your videos before. The rights of adults are only limited to what the government says its limited to. The only time rights are limited based is when the government of that society is limited. The government essentially determines how many rights we have. And it is impossible to determine when life starts.

  • @DoubleR2591 Firstly, it's not impossible to determine when life starts, because science is very clear on when human life begins. As for the rest of you comment, you just proved my point. If you're comfortable with the government deciding who should get rights and who shouldn't, then that's your choice. But my point is that we shouldn't let the government decide who gets rights and who doesn't, because someone will always be discriminated against.

  • @ChayyneeBieber - And i'm sure your baby would thank you later in life, having been abandoned and thrown into a system that is under-funded, over-crowded and potentially dangerous. A lot of children never find a home. They are left onto the street to defend themselves once they come of age, with little to no support from the system or the people that claim to care for unborn babies.

    Care? Really? You care so much that you just abandon them.

  • fantastic video,i am proud of her,l if such a young person can have such a wise, logical understanding of the topic of abortion, it is shameful to many adults that have not been able to get to the same conclusion, i am sure anyone who listen to this video will have a better understanding of the topic, and will have all the logical and factual reason to reconsider their view on abortion, and be more sympathetic about always choosing life. great job

  • @FyreFoxXP Is this response for me? Or not?

  • Lia is SOOOO smart!!!

  • heres another scenario:

    a 15 year old is raped and becomes pregnant. she doesn't want a baby because she has no one that could look after/help look after it and she's in no position to look after it herself. she wouldn't want a baby even if she was in a position to look after. she has important exams coming up which will determine her future. sadly it's illegal to abort so her life is ruined for the sake of her unborn child who has a rubbish life anyway because of it's poor upbringing.

  • You shouldn't give an example that is specifically invented to prove your point. You are very well spoken, but your ideas are all flawed and you aren't old enough to understand anything about life yet, unless you have been raped or had an abortion at your young age in which case you can make your points all you want.
