I look at it this way. The person whose body is in question should get to decide whether they do this or not, according to whatever moral standard they choose to apply. Because it is a moral question and there is no way to establish the personhood of the fetus up to a certain point. At that point, once it is kicking, or capable of living on its own, it is a person. The grey area is where that line is, and I absolutely refuse to debate that, way too much to do. Dana
