I Am Pro Choice

Although I hate the idea of a child being ripped out of its mother's womb, or dissected if it's a late term abortion, I do believe it is the mothers right to take into mind the suitability of the moment for her, psychologically speaking. I don't think economics should be a factor at all, just the psychological health of the mother. But my opinion should never be a benchmark, it's an individual decision of the women carrying the babies, with expert guidance from medical professionals.

If you are Pro-choice, then you agree that the woman (and only the woman) can decide. If you think that she should have the baby, regardless of the wishes of the woman, then you're Pro-life.

These two groups seen to have very strong opinions and are reluctant to alter their opinions. But this is a question for the Pro-choice group.

What if a woman decides that she wants an abortion on the day before the baby is due to be delivered? Or maybe she changes her mind while she's being wheeled into the delivery room. Do Pro-choice supporters still support her choice? Does she still have body autonomy? If the doctors tell her that her life may be at risk with an abortion so late in the pregnancy, but she still wants one, do you support her or not?

And if you think that her choice should be taken away from her because she left it "too late" then what arbitrary date in the pregnancy do you decide that you no longer support her choice?
