Both ways are not the best things for a young child. I am totally against partial birth abortions, because that is just sick and wrong. To me though who is kind of a science geek, it's just a mass of cells at the early stage, not really a person. It doesn't have emotions or any of that, that all comes later. But having a baby just to have it is wrong, being raised by an irresponsible parent can turn the child to be just like that and maybe into a criminal. My 2 cents.

I understand where you are coming from however, to say that a fetus is just a mass of cells is ridiculous. There have been babies that have been born month pre-mature and able to live. I always think adoption is the best way to go however, I also believe in a person's right to choose.

I'm not quite sure how you figure adoption isn't a good foundation. Do you realize the screening process to adopt a child? Sure a screening isn't going to always weed out the bad one but it's more than what they put people through who are having their child and plan to raise it. Adoption is always better than death. Always!
