Lol @ abortion thread for men.


dont get why this is funny... if you are in a serious relationship it wont be a decision made by just the female but rather by both. and the thread isnt specifically for men... just happens to be more males on this site than females

No because it is still human.


yes... but that fetus wont ever become conscious. majority result in stillbirth or miscarriage, those that do survive birth only live for a couple of hours to a few days. all the doctors will do is provide nutrition and hydration.. as the mother becomes more attached to the baby, the harder she will take the death. its bad enough depression in women tend to peak during childbearing years but throwing that on top...

i think also the abortion rates were like 90-98% of women who find out about the anencephaly

Just think about it. If someone finds out that they have full-blown aids and only have one year to live would you kill that person? (I know it is quite hard to find out that you have aids after 5-6 years of constant sickness, but let us make an image). That person will die anyways so why not kill the person to put him/her out of his/her misery? The same applies here.

Overview

Anencephaly- is the absence of a large part of the brain and the skull.

Symptoms
  • Absence of the skull
  • Absence of the brain (cerebral hemispheres and cerebellum)
  • Facial feature abnormalities
  • Heart defects

Prognosis

This condition usually causes death within a few days.

Bioethically speaking - Would you have an abortion when you find out 20 days into the pregnancy that you have a baby with anencephaly? or would you let it be born to die within a day or two?


no i wouldnt. Who are you to decide whether somebody lives or not? The baby could live just as long as a normal person. Someone could find a cure for the disease before he/she dies...you never know.
