because you were stupid and became pregnant without wanting a child, so you think you should be able to kill an unborn (or "half born" as the selfish women call it) child

I have never heard a fetus called "half born" and sperm and eggs are unborn children as much as fetuses are, why make the distinction at conception?

without caring about what the child could have been.

that is ridiculous, potential is not a valid argument, maybe if you rape the next woman you see you will conceive a child who could grow up as the next Einstein! Potential isn't real, it is a figment.

I also believe that selective abortion is terrible, not just for the children killed, but the siblings. (how would you like having the knowledge that your parents killed your sibling just because you seemed the wiser choice to keep, all that guilt all your life just because of someone elses selfishness?)

Um, what? That makes no sense, who would feel guilty because your parents didn't want two? I'm wasn't born in that situation, but I know there is no way I would feel guilty in that situation, and I don't know anyone who would.
Besides if your argument is the loss of potential, do you also deny the right to use contraception?
