> And a doctor, decides what's medically necessary, and decides to perform it or not. Yup, and if a doctor deems than an abortion is not medically necessary, the woman can still have one anyway. Which makes it elective. Elective abortions are the ones we're discussing. > Ans also no reason _to_ restrict them. Why shouldn't we restrict them? If it's late enough in term that the child is viable, and there is no threat to the life of the mother, then why should that type of abortion be legal? How is an elective abortion at 32 weeks any different from killing an infant?
