18 weeks may be sensible at this point; five years from now, who knows. Now, a strong argument can be made who believe abortion at any point is killing -- that if it is killing at 18 weeks then it is at 14. That is a compelling argument to me, even though am pro-choice but not without restrictions. If we do, as Al suggested, and make it the woman's decision, we will have late-term abortions from now on. .....I don't believe it will ever move to 18 weeks.......Al did not favor abortion after viability.........my question to him was to set a limit. .....I have a friend who told me 25 years ago that his sister worked in a primi ward.........It drove her absolutely crazy because she KNEW that the fetus's chance for survival was directly proportional to the attentive care they would be given every shift. She always felt she could do more while she knew others may not feel the same................it tortured her to the point she had to move on. It's probably much less an issue now
