"Its not very fair is it, but life isnt fair anyway. i think its better than having a child you dont really want, not much fun growing up knowing you werent really wanted because most people know." That's my gut feeling too. Often people have kids they don't want and end up destroying the poor child. It's the lesser of two evils. Bit difficult really. In an ideal world it wouldn't be an issue. | |||

"I'm not sure why this bothered me so much but thought it would make an interesting topic for discussion. So a woman on This Morning seems to think that women should be able to abort a child if that child is simply not of the sex they wanted... Also taking into account the possiblr pressure from certain cultures, groups or family that may consider a girl or boy to be of less importance. This is not about women's rights to abort or not but the child's gender alone being the deciding factor as to whether they live or die. I'm sure we've all heard about "designer babies" but surely this is taking it way too far? We all know the consequences of sex and pregnancy and surely the choices should be you either see the pregnancy to term or you don't, regardless of gender. Did anyone else see it and if so, what do you have to say on the matter?" I didn't see it. Babies are miracles and too many people don't understand that a pregnancy leads to a new human being, if that makes sense. I don't think people should be able to choose gender, it should be for extreme cases only. But as per my other comment, if someone is going to destroy a child after it has been born, then that is an extreme case. | |||

"Is it better to permit termination on the grounds of gender or force unwilling Mothers to carry a baby to full term with the serious possibility their lack of enthusiasm for that task will result in the child being neglected, or worse? " I really struggle to believe that once a child is born the mother would be so disappointed she wouldn't be able to love it or even be neglectful. I was absolutely convinced I was having a girl and actually really wanted a girl. I found out the sex at 20 weeks and was not at all disappointed that I was having a boy, I loved my baby as soon as I found out I was pregnant. If women can't love their babies based on gender they shouldn't even be getting pregnant | |||

"A woman should be able to have an abortion regardless of the reason why. Ultimately it is her choice and I'm my opinon bystanders should have no say in the matter." Bystanders make the laws. It's about what society finds acceptable. | |||

"Giving birth when you don't know the sex of your child is like Christmas or a birthday. Waiting to see what you have been blessed with. I didn't see the program so have no idea why she wanted to choose the sex. Religion and cultural pressures discounted here as it isn't always the woman's choice but I can't think of any sane reason why a person would choose one sex over another. I suppose they may want what they might think is the perfect family" Having a baby when you do know the sex is like having the best Christmas and birthday present too, it was for me anyway x | |||

"We would give an arm and a leg well any body part to be able to have a child of our own so for people being able to abort a child as its not the gender they want shocks me beyond belief if a mother is contemplating this then they should not be allowed to ever be a mother. " I too desperately wanted children but life doesn't always give us what we want. Sometimes that is a pregnancy that is not wanted. Sometimes it's the absence of a pregnancy that is not happening. | |||

"I didn't see the inter_iew on This Morning but I seem to remember something about this in the press earlier this week. I am pro-choice for lots of reasons but I find the idea of making a choice to abort based on gender really difficult to understand. Chinese men are facing the problem of not enough women as a result of the one child rules and abortions based on gender. I have heard the same in some Asian communities. Somehow, nature has a way of balancing out the gender supply." Everyone seems to be pussyfooting around the facts that, in some societies/ cultures, women are 1) not seen as being as 'productive as men (in economic terms)' and 2) will require a substantial dowry to assist in getting rid of this ongoing burden. The most recent numbers I can find suggest "an old and cruel story: the systematic elimination of girls in India. In the 2001 census, the sex ratio — the number of girls to every 1,000 boys — was 927 in the 0-6 age group. Preliminary data from the 2011 census show that the imbalance has worsened, to 914 girls for every 1,000 boys." Nature is fighting a losing battle. BTW, I reckon there are too many children being born. Both sexes. Everywhere. | |||

"I'll admit that I imagine the worst and I know that women in some cultures feel that they or their child may be endangered if they're not the "right" sex but then surepy help and support should be offered rather than allowing a woman to go through with an abortion that she might not want. - Although if any woman wants it bad enough, they'll give ANY reason. From a blind and non-cultural point of _iew though I can't help but wonder where that mentality ends... "I don't want this child because they have brown eyes and I wanted blue". Specifically if you're trying for a child as well... Would you just have abortion after abortion until you get the sex you want? I just don't get it. The whole thing has left my brain fried. " Agreed. it's odd how many people seem to regard themselves as libertarians on here yet agree to something the Third Reich would have done.It's called selective breeding. | |||

"I think abortion is wrong for any reason other than the possibility of the mother and baby dying during pregnancy. Abortion is murder plain and simple. If you don't want to get pregnant use contraception. I get so angry hearing that women have aborted perfectly healthy babies. And I don't agree with this "her body her choice" rubbish. Its the babies body that's being murdered. I would say if you want an abortion fine then you get permanently sterilised so you can never get pregnant again." Says a man!

You do know that no contraception is 100% effective don't you...only way to not get pregnant (or get someone pregnant) is to not have sex. I have the implant and use condoms, but there is still a chance I could get pregnant...a tiny chance but it's still there. I don't think I could go through with an abortion to be honest even though I don't want children, but I would like the choice to be there should I ever need to, especially considering I'd most likely have to raise the child completely by myself as I doubt I'd be able to identify the daddy, and if I did I don't think the CSA could track down a fab user name. Also, what about women who get raped? Or may not die but could have serious physical after effects? Or who just know that they couldn't give a child the love and support it would need. I know there is the adoption route, but not all children get adopted regardless of how many out there want to adopt | |||

It's not an easy decision to make to have an abortion. Many live with the emotional pain of it for years. It's not always the woman's choice either. Even with contraception you can sometimes fall pregnant (twice in my case). You believe abortion is murder and that's fine but it's not fine to then suggest that permanent sterilisation should be forced on a woman. I know the 'it's my opinion' line will be be trotted out and I grateful that legislators don't think like you. Finally, riled enough now to think if your suggestion of sterilisation for women should extend to the men that get them pregnant, walk away and leave the mother and baby? Or for the men that coerce women into abortions? Do men even know how many children they have created that may have been lost to early miscarriage or a decision to abort? Probably not because when push comes to shove it is our bodies as women that have to deal with this and we have to take the fall out, the vitriol and the sheer narrow minded hypocrisy of men. I know men who would have liked to keep the child and the woman made the decision against their wishes. That's not easy either and I have every sympathy for those men and the effect it has on their lives. | |||

And euthanasia well mandatory euthanasia, who's to say how old you should be when you die. And again both are murder. Assisted suicide is a difficult 1 though as it's a person making their own choice to die. As long as its done right and has witnesses to prove it was assisted and not just murder I don't see why not. | |||

"Exactly so why is the murder of an innocent child not wrong? Why is 1 type of murder different to another? If my partner murdered my child but called it abortion why couldn't I do the same to her and just say well its abortion. Whatever you say abortion is morally wrong and should be criminally wrong. Murder is murder. And now I'm dropping the subject as its obvious we just have hugely differing opinions and its not going to be settled." Because abortion is legal, murder is illegal | |||

I am pro life and carry the guilt of allowing a previous girlfriend to have a termination will haunt me ...to hear women being sanguine about abortion ..women are supposedely nurturers is shocking well im very nurturing, i have a hubby, son and little dog, i just happen to be pro choice. youre a man so you have no idea what its like to be pregnant, give birth and be responsible for your baby. I wish I could remember a post you did months ago because it didn't sound like you were nurturing in that one Whilst I agree with abortion in some cases the idea of abortion because of gender is to me just awful.

"Is it better to permit termination on the grounds of gender or force unwilling Mothers to carry a baby to full term with the serious possibility their lack of enthusiasm for that task will result in the child being neglected, or worse? I really struggle to believe that once a child is born the mother would be so disappointed she wouldn't be able to love it or even be neglectful. I was absolutely convinced I was having a girl and actually really wanted a girl. I found out the sex at 20 weeks and was not at all disappointed that I was having a boy, I loved my baby as soon as I found out I was pregnant. If women can't love their babies based on gender they shouldn't even be getting pregnant " Welcome! We don't get many extra terrestrials here. | |||

"I know exactly how many children I've fathered. The answer is none. I've always used protection and if I've not had it I've not had sex. I do think if a man does get a woman pregnant he should have to be involved in that child's life. And a lot of men could do with being sterilised. But whichever way you look at it abortion is murder. Its killing a living being. A miscarriage is a terrible shame but its not an act of murder. And as for getting "caught" when on the pill etc. Well use the pill and a condom. No glove no love. So then no, you don't know that there isn't a single method of contraception that is 100% effective, even when combined with another method. The odds may reduce but there is still a chance of getting pregnant when using a hormonal contraceptive and a barrier method. And I'm sure the women who have aborted a child after being raped would love the additional guilt of being labelled a murderer. Having sex means there is a risk of pregnancy. You don't want to get pregnant then don't have sex. And yes women who have been raped who abort their child are murderers. Its not the babys fault that they got raped. I'm not saying its the womens fault either. But why take it out on a perfectly innocent baby. And heres one you'll love. If I was in a relationship and my partner got pregnant and she aborted my child I'd make damn sure she joined it. After all as long as I say I just aborted her its legal right?" Wow...there are no words, just wow! I do hope you make that clear to every woman you have sex with (whether protected or not) as like you have acknowledged, having sex brings a risk of pregnancy...brings a whole new meaning to having safe sex | |||

This is a very insensitive comment to men. Sure men don't know what its like to be pregnant or give birth but to dismiss them as loving parents is hurtful. So many women want men to be caring loving fathers but only if they decided they want to be mothers. I am not going to debate the abortion issue here but my heart goes out to those men who would fight dearly for their children because they truely have no choice and never will. | |||

"My "babies" are 26 and 23. Had baby scans but no pics from them. I knew I was having a boy first time, not by being told but could see the umbilical cord and his penis. 2nd time round, I wanted a girl and that's what I got. Would have loved scan pics but there we go. " dozy cow, I posted before I finished. Females don't choose the sex of the baby, the man does. Personally, for me I wouldn't have a abortion | |||
