Pro choice or Pro life?

To be honest, I am for both.

I respect the woman's choice to carry the child or not. After all it is her body and she will be mostly affected by the pregnancy for 9 months. And you have to think about situations where there is rape involved. How can one subject the woman for 9 months to carry the child of a rapist? How about in instances where genetic testing clearly shows the child to be a very sickly one and will most likely not survive? Why suffer for 9 months when the child will die anyway? These are strong argument for the pro choice camp.

Now I am also for pro life too. And not at all for religious reason as most pro life would argue. I am for the choice of the child. If the woman has a choice to carry the child or not, then the child should have the choice to live or not. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Well, not the best analogy but you get my meaning. And in most instances the woman made the decision to have sex without contraception, so she should stand by the result of that carnal pleasure.

So what is my middle ground for this? If the unborn child is healthy, I advocate for the woman to carry it and give up for adoption upon being born. There are plenty of good parents unable to conceive who can give that child a good life. More so if the pregnancy is the result of consenting unprotected sex between the man and woman. The man should compensate the woman for the duration of the pregnancy and give up the child for adoption if neither party wants it. That way, both parties get to be responsible for their actions.
