My belief is that abortions shouldn't be allowed after the point of when a baby can be delivered and have a possibility of living.
I posted earlier about a family friend who delivered prematurely. She delivered at 27 months, and that little girl is now 11 years old.
ETA: Also, the article didn't state why the woman was having an abortion. If she was having it because she didn't want the baby anymore, I have HUGE issues with that. If it was a matter of keeping the woman alive because of a difficult pregnancy, then I have a huge issue with the way it was carried out. Although, if it were the latter, I'd think it'd happen in a hospital and not an abortion clinic. (I know of a woman who had to abort mid-pregnancy because it was a chance of her dying and possibly the baby dying. She had other kids also. The abortion was very hard on everyone in their family and I believe they had a private funeral and the baby's body is buried in the cemetary.)

27 months? Wow, that is a long pregnancy.
