My 12-year-old would be at the GYN Surgery Clinic as fast as I could get her there, and I am pro-life. A pregnancy at the age of 12 is very very high risk. My primary responsibility would be to my child whose life is at risk. While I agree, the fetus/embryo does have a right to life, that right to life is never at the expense of another innocent, in this case a child herself, a child who was raped! This type of abortion, by the way, has always been legal in this country. The “guilt” would not be on my daughter, it would be on me, as I made the decision not to allow her young life to be further torn apart by a pregnancy that was the result of rape. And, I would be far less afraid to answer to God for the embryo’s death, than I would be to answer for my daughter’s death (yes, she can die from this) and, at the very least, a year of her young life needlessly ruined by the trauma of childbirth or discomforts of pregnancy as or her little girl’s body that is NOT ready for pregnancy (even though she is ovulating) and could damaged so badly she could never conceive/carry a pregnancy as an adult. And by the way, a C-section is not without its risks either, and most likely at the young age of 12, likely to happen anyway. What is the matter with you people? The court has acted in the child’s best interest.
Oh my! You are going to die and go straight to hell.
