Since Im a girl and you guys arnt... I can say that if I were to get pregnant at my age I would get an abortion. I know I would be a crappy mom. And if I had the baby there is no way I could give it up for adoption. I would hate knowing that my child is out there somewhere and I may never see them. I know that sounds sort of selfish but Im sure thats how a lot of teenage girls think...

It all depends on your views on life. Something that makes you feel wronged can be a daily thing in another's life. Whether or not we think its wrong or not, Abortion happens every single day, and we can't change it right here. If you were to ask a specialist in the abortion field, would they say they enjoy their jobs? Or simply a way to make money?
The question I asked was probably sided and unfair but questions are never stupid or never fair. Questions are there to be asked, and then to answered. Questions are never stupid because someone in somewhere does not know the answer to it.

too much quoting so @ excel-
what i said isnt contradictory, im just saying u cant determine the worth of someone until you have lived their life so u cant say they are better or worse than you
its true that some people are better or worse off than you even when they dont deserve it, but think about it. middle class people are the core of our society, working in all the jobs that keep the city going. if they decided to stop working then the city would fall apart meaning they have the same worth as the people who run the govenment. of course that example is easy to see whereas the prospect of homeless people being worth the same it much harder to see...but you said it yourself that from hard times, a person may decide to change things for the better and make a difference in the world

Why can't I determine someone's worth without living in their life? Just because I didn't have the same exact thought processes doesn't mean that I can realize their way of thinking things. Everyone can have the same potential, it is possible, but not everybody has the same value. You give the example of all of these middle calss workers quitting. what if just one quit compared to a leader of a country quitting. Do they both have the same impact on the country?

Move to what thread? This is completely on topic because it has to do with trying to justify our opinions on abortion. And on what you said to me before, it wouldn't be just as devastating because the leader would have a much more devastating affect on the whole country, and you can't compare it to multiple people quitting because then it wouldn't be an equal comparison. You can find just about anybody to fill in a middle class job, you can't just pick anyone to be a nation's leader.
