Fetuses don't think.  They don't verbalize.  They don't understand
language from outside the womb.  At the ages when abortions are most
common they don't have nerve pathways allowing them to sense anything.

You could as well write a series of letters from a sheep to a farmer
asking that he not be slaughtered because next year he's going to
grow just a super coat and make everybody proud.
