Yes, but we are talking about an embryo or a fetus, not a living child.

We are talking about a fetus so we are talking about a living child.

if we are going to demand protection for embryos or fetuses, and a woman doesn't want to act as the host

The woman is more then the host, she is the child's mother. In any case it is not possible to make someone else act as the host even if they want to.

Once our politicians get the power to force women to be hosts for unwanted growing items, our politicians don't have to go too much further to want women to host body parts, such as livers, kidneys, hearts, etc. It is not only possible, but plausible.

They are not humans but only human parts.

This is one example of why you have a credibility problem robert. I doubt that any rational person on either side of the argument believes that the political system of the USA or any one of "our politicians" would ever consider such a thing...let alone as you imply the whole group. Get real.
