Your wife with a pregnancy that endangered her health and possibly her life but was too early to be viable?
A routine ultrasound revealing that the fetus you were carrying had no brain and while it would grow inside your body like a parasite for 9 months and be born it would never live beyond an hour?
My point is that these things are real situations that happen to real people every day. I meet some of these people.
So far I think I think that I believe that:
1. TOP on demand is morally wrong and should be illegal.
2. There should be some allowable exceptions and we may never agree on what they are.
3. The likelihood that current law will ever be repealed or even altered is almost nil for a lot of reasons the biggest one is that the majority of people want it to be legal even if they find it sickening.
And no, no comparison between welfare recipients and Hitler... My questions just kind of ran together... Do you believe it would have been better if Hitler were never born? And is it better for a woman to have and keep a child that she will never love or give a decent chance at life for selfish reasons than to terminate it?

How do you deal with a young girl getting pregnant? I am not a doctor, but I would assume one would start with a game plan to treat both patients.
Same with a mother who is in danger. Sometimes extended hospitalization is required to ensure the best possible outcome.
The "no brain" scenario may be somewhat different. If it is simply a tumor or mass then it is treated as such. However, there are many, many cases where the parents were told the baby would not live and they did. Some going on to lead productive and even normal lives. I would contact a team of doctors who do not believe in abortion and come up with a plan.
I think I can answer the Hitler question better as soon as you show you had evidence while he was in the womb that he would later kill millions.
Better to keep a child the mother will not love? No. That child is better to be adopted into a two parent home where he will be loved. This is the reality of many. Adoption works without killing.
