That is a choice she and parents need to make, not you , not your beliefs, not your faith. It has to be THEIR choice. I would never support taking that choice out of the hands of the family.
And as I have said so many times before, if you support taking away choice, then you best be willing to pony up some more money to take care of them. I have met few prolife supporters who have a plan for what happens after that child is born (other then someone will adopt them) and even fewer who are willing to put their money where their mouth is.

For me, nothing you've said excuses the murder of an innocent. If you believe yourself to be Christian, you must agree or you're a hypocrite to your faith.
I say this just to make a point. I don't demand that you agree with me, or act accordingly. Everyone must live according to their own conscience.
But if you believe, you must also believe the words of The Lord when he said he "knew you before you were born". He acknowledged that unborn life, can you do less?
