Sanjay, what I was trying to illustrate a point -- whom is more important of
the parents or the fetus, using only their age differences.  The fourteen-year-
old is supposed to represent the mother and father, the baby is the fetus.
The bureaucrat is all the evils and unhappiness that an unwanted child COULD
bring (varying from case to case, of course!).  You have to make the decision,
kiddo, that's why you're suscribed to this newsgroup in the first place!
Would you let the family get the abortion and rid of the baby, or keep it 
and possibly sacrifice the happiness and careers of the mother and father?

As for Pro-what, I'd think you'd be pro-misunderstood.  But if you can
figure out if you're pro-choice or pro-life or pro-notpro, lemme know!
