Okay, let’s take this reasoning even further then. Why can’t this same logic be used to a 3 year old?
The same logic does work on a 3 year old. A parent is not forced to feed it and can have someone remove it. They just don’t call it abortion. adoption.com/how-to-give-a-child-up-for-adoption/
Maybe some day a fetus can be removed without killing it, but 3 year olds already have that ability.
Then have the child and give it up for adoption? If you don’t want to keep it, you can freely abort it until, say, 12 weeks, after which you’d need a medical reason and a statement from one or two doctors. I don’t see what the issue is here.
I’m not saying this is exactly how it should be, but something along those lines. The idea that someone should be free to abort a 7-month-old fetus if they choose seems quite extreme to me.
Because a 3 year old is SENTINENT. It can FEEL things, unlike a fetus.
I’m pretty sure an 8-month-old fetus can feel things and is sentient, so that’s a moot point unless you’re going to argue that sentience appears at the moment of birth - which we both know isn’t true.
So… Why can’t we abort 3 year olds?
Oh, you’re just a stupid reactionary. Get blocked idiot.

Cause then it is no longer connected to your body? Why would the same logic apply here? I am confused what argument you are trying to make
