I do not see it as 'killing a child' until the fetus has a heartbeat. An abortion early on is just like a really heavy period...so many people miscarry in the first few weeks after being pregnant and dont even know they miscarried. I prefer to use the term induced miscarriage than abortion...in the first few weeks of pregnancy. I know its the same thing, but the word abortion carries way too much stigma and whatever your reasons for doing it, you will always be made to feel awful by society...even if it was for a reason such as rape :/

I understand that and I don't push my views on anyone or even assume that my opinion is right on it, it's just how I personally feel about it. I have been in a situation where abortion would have been the easier option for me at that particular time but I knew I would never be able to live with myself If I did it. Again, though, I have never been raped so I couldn't say for sure if I'd feel the same in that situation.
