I suppose in your view being dead is a better outcome for a person, than growing up without parents.
So you are essentially saying you are willing sacrifice the child's life, for the teen's sake, because you feel sorry for her. And you see that as "moral". It seems that because the child can't be seen or heard, he doesn't really get say in that decision doesn't he?
If according to your logic those starving children should have been aborted, why not allow parents to kill off their children after they are born? After all they are still unwanted, still can't fend for themselves, and still live in dire conditions.
Whats the diference in your view?
I'm sorry aquarius, but your arguments are a bit too cliche. They've been around since nazi germany.
How about focusing on resolving the issue rather than misconstruing and twisting the words around to boost one's own ego.
Also, what you keep saying as "also in your view" has nothing to do with my as far as the sense of it goes, but more to do with how you like to play around with words and twist them around to come back with more ammunition. Be as it may, that psychology won't get me to say what you want to hear.
Nonetheless, to respond to this bit:

To put it in a straight shot manner, which I actually did already, if two adults had behaved maturely, not had unprotected sex, there would have been less un-cared for, starving children in the streets.
If rape victims were not forced to continue with their pregnancy, there would have be less un-cared for, starving children in the streets
IF adult couples- hat have the means to support half a dozen children, instead chose to still not be pregnant and adopt instead, or if the urge to continue their hereditary lineage and experience pregnancy is so great, then have a child of their own and adopt at least one street child - again less un-cared for, starving children in the streets!!!
I see not point in bringing more children into this world - when we cannot care for the ones that already exist. Full stop.
There are soooo many children out there that have no one to look after them, don't get one warm meal a day sometimes, roam around naked, sleep like that in the cold streets... and here we are discussing why rape victims should bear more children- can it get any more pathetic. Families that live under the poverty line (but went ahead with their pregnancy- perhaps in less developed societies and who did not know better) and have multiple children, yes, some would rather give up a child and let them have a better life. We have adopted such a child in my family!!
Good luck to you to be able to apply more logic and compassion in this matter.
