A life becomes a life when it is capable of sustaining itself outside of the mother's body.

As long as it is reliant on the mother's body, it is part of the mother's body, it is not an independent life. It is just a growth on the mother's body and a woman should have complete control and decision making over her own body. If it was possible to transfer that growth to the father, then i think absolutely he should have the choice to take on that growth, but since that's not possible, all decisions should be with the mother/host.

Maybe some day it will be possible for men to carry children, but until that day comes, they have no right to tell women what to do with their bodies. If they don't like it then they should've worn a condom. period.

I agree with this. However if a woman falls pregnant they should still listen to the father of their potential baby's opinion. Not shut them out because it is 50/50. However of course the overule decision is from the mother because it is her body as well as the baby inside it.

I am for pro choice. But contracepton etc.. should be more easily available for young people and older people to use to prevent from unwanted pregnancies happening. Unfortunately a 13 year old in this day and age should be on the pill if they are having sex. Better off than getting pregnant. Either that or not have sex at all. I always think that our natural bodies should grow through puberty and not take things like the "pill" at such a young and vulnerable age. But desperate decisions leads to desperate measures and precautions.
