Sometimes it's just best to let them go.

Some people are so concerned with whether or not we should have the 'right to abort', I don't think they ever stop to consider that in some cases the question should be, "do we have the right not to abort".

I don't mean legal rights. But if, as the anti choicers insist, 'morals are absolute regardless of the feelings of those involved'; then by what 'moral right' do parents have to create an individual who is doomed to a life of misery and suffering?
Bother not the cat. For they are sneaky and will piss on thy keyboard.
