They can’t both have what they want. Someone’s rights have to trump the other. Would you like a baby to be half aborted so that not all the rights go to one person? Your view makes no sense. Knowing who your birth parent is, isn’t an inalienable right. I know you would like it to be but it is not. The mother does have a right to privacy (the law gives it to her). If the state give her name address and phone number to the child. They violated her rights. You can’t give the child a right (to know her mother) that violates the mother’s rights (privacy). Equally you cant (or shouldnt be able to) give a pregnant woman a right (abortion) that violates the child’s right (life). The reason that so few people get your viewpoint on this forum is because it is a conservative forum and your view is not a conservative one.
every view point is not either conservative or liberal. that is not reality.
This is a viewpoint that has to do with laws and rights.
morality and what should or shouldn’t be the simple rights of every human being born on this earth.
To know who gave you life is a very simple right. maybe the most basic. why it seems so evil to some is confusing.
But in this specific case if the mother didn’t want her privacy violated she should have responded to the request. She also might have even gone a little further and sent an anonymous letter to her child explaining the whys of her decision and also give her some basic medical information.
although i’m sure some here would think that would violate the all important privacy rights.
anyway...i’m bored with this discussion now.
