Ok I'm fine with abortion up until a certain point. It's not like you can kill a fetus 5 minutes before birth. There's more of a moral question there and I don't want to take that extreme. But most abortions take place before 21 weeks which is when the nervous system develops. I think 21 weeks is a good limit and should only be passed in cases of rape, life of mother, fatal fetal defect ect. Which are the only cases beyond 21 weeks.
Abortions that take place after 21 weeks are usually because either the fetus won’t make it to birth or the mother won’t. Women who are pregnant for that long planned to have a child and don’t want an abortion but have to have one because continuing the pregnancy will kill them.
