Would you have the heart, even the capacity of taking the life of YOUR unborn child? What is the definition of life? It is the existence of an individual human being. No matter if they are just fetuses growing in your stomach, these fetuses have heartbeats, feelings, and even limbs. I believe abortion is not just, it’s not right to take the life of an unborn child who didn’t get a say in being aborted. These babies could have the chance of becoming something great in life, and the person held responsible for that is to be blamed.
