Wouldn't that basically be the same for a baby though? I mean up until about 6 months, babies require body processes of the mother. Shouldn't it be subject to abortion from the hosting mother?
I like the argument that if it ain't your DNA you can't make the choice but it kinda seems like a double standard.
You argued the DNA example could allow one conjoined twin to cut off the other even though it would die. My statement argued that the current law is much closer to allowing for that. A law I disagree with. Mommy nor twin should be allowed to abort.
So yes, the baby relies on the body of the mother. But no, it should not be subject to abortion by the host. Relies on her body and is her body are two very different things.
