AlphaGamDiva said that abortions are selfish. I agree with that.
But choosing to have a child is selfish also.
Why do people have children. Because they want them. That's pretty damn selfish right there
I just don't think calling an abortion a selfish act is a good argument.

I agree that having a child is selfish -- how is it not? Yes, you're giving up time and energy taking care of someone else, but I think that reproduction is an inherently selfish act -- people have kids because they want them -- how is that any less selfish than not having a kid because one doesn't want them?
I think that having many biological children is especially selfish -- you're creating a huge drain of resources.
