This girl is an innocent human being, too. She did ask to be raped, and she did not consent to conceive and carry a child. This is a rare case, and one where her rights trump those of the unborn child, IMO.

What is the source of her right to kill an innocent human being?

How can anyone possibly have the right to kill an innocent human being?

Well, you know, that's one of those places where life just sucks a rock. Doesn't matter if a woman consents to conceive. Once she does, there's another human being involved, and that human being has an absolute right not to be killed.

In cases like these, the 11 year-old can't reliably consent either way, and that's the problem. It's easy to assume that she's better of having the abortion but she can't consent to that, either. Consider if, instead of accepting the choice that was made for her, she decided that she wanted the child she was carrying and considers the baby's abortion the murder of her child. What kind of crime would that be against her, compared to the hardshiop of forcing her to carry a child she doesn't want?
