Too often, individuals defend abortion on the premise that abortion is only a matter of choice and self-determination of women’s bodies. That women are free and able to make their own decisions is clear as water. But abortion doesn’t only affect the mother but also the life of an unborn child. We support ladies’ right to choose, just not when that choice implies terminating a human life.

The pro-life movement does not intend, at any stance, to take any person’s fundamental freedoms. The pro-life movement does defend that life in the womb should be protected and is intrinsically valuable, just because it is a Human Life. To call abortion a “Right” or “self-determination” is a lie and advocates for violence. “You can’t force anyone to parent” – true. But, in the face of struggles, terminating a life is never the answer. My freedom stops where yours starts.
