I'm finding it very hard to believe that the mother/and or children were all in jeopardy due to child birth. "Therapeutic" can mean virtually anything. |
It can mean I'll kill myself if I can't get it removed. |
With counseling for the emotional state, it could be removed through natural birth and placed with another family would could better care for it. 9 months isn't a lifetime. |
So, is that what you'd suggest for, say, a 9 year old rape victim? Even though her doctors said that she would probably literally die by the 7th month because her body is just not big or developed to bear children? That she should just have counseling?
Or, what about a woman whose pregnancy is causing her lungs to fill up with fluid? |
Stanton,
These are very unusual predictaments. This is not the norm. I firmly believe that if a mother is at the point of having to chose life over death due to childbirth, [b}I think God would be forgiving of letting the child come back to Him. That does not mean that I would suggest terminating the pregnancy at the start. I've seen very small women give birth with little complications. Aborting the child might leave more emotional scars than the physical scars of actually having it.[/b] |
Who are you to decide what I (or any other woman) should do with her uterus?
I assure you that your gods have nothing to do with fertilization.
