MODERATORS
I'll admit you make some fair points.
This pair are completely incompetent and should absolutely never become parents/grandparents.
However the fact that police investigated, asked for chat logs from a social media provider, and are intimidating the two of them and we're all talking about it is the entire point.
Fear. They want us to be at reach others throats on this issue.
You sound like a reasonable person. I think we can both agree that what the police are doing right now is wrong. Even at 20 weeks, which is very late in the pregnancy game, as you say, the decision for what to do with her body should have been between her and her doctor only.
We should not have courts getting involved in this crap again like it's pre the 70s all over. Those were not good times for women.
The two of them could absolutely have been smarter about what they did. But what they did shouldn't be receiving national attention because it should have stayed between the two of them and their doctor.
