So what? Why does that mean the doctor gets to make her life choices?

I completely disagree. Maybe you can pay for the procedure, but what about later? Can you afford to take care of them? What about the ethics of having SO DAMN MANY KIDS when the world is already seriously overpopulated? I think the good/needs of the many outweighs the wants of the one.
It is *not* for the doctor to make that decision for her, is what I've been saying here.

I'm not saying that I agree with this woman's choice, but I *am* saying it was HER CHOICE, not her doctor's, not her mother's not the government's.

If you think abortion is a "Pro-Choice" issue, then you have to believe this is too, or you are a hypocrite. It is the SAME THING. Reproductive Choice.
