The thing is a fetus isnt a child for a good portion of the time it's in the womb. I'm leery of late term abortion unless there's a serious medical concern involving the mother or child but I have a very hard time saying a fetus is the same as a child for basically all of the first trimester at least

I don't see the moral cause of denying a human of his or her most basic of rights, the right to live, based on where they are on a developmental line.  Nor do I find it viable to use the word "fetus" as a means for stripping humanity itself away.

At this point it's just basic science. In what way is a clump of cells that hasn't even developed internal organs or a vertebrae comparable to a child?
