00:00:00.000 so my question is at what point does a life become a life so when when should abortion be legal if
00:00:08.000 you got to pick the laws tomorrow and that's why i showed you the the pamphlet so you could see the
00:00:13.940 stages of development so like at what point yeah i my back question to that was and i think we've
00:00:18.880 we've gone around in a giant loop was what scientifically decided that point so that i can
00:00:24.480 have some information to base an opinion on because i don't i don't understand why 20 why 26 weeks who
00:00:31.120 decided that why so it's really hard for me to put an opinion on something i don't know lawmakers it was
00:00:36.380 politicians i mean i think it was politician i mean but what was there like you in the u.s so i'm from
00:00:41.980 the u.s um but women sway elections so a lot of times if like if they if people running can say
00:00:48.960 um they can run on abortion rights they can get women women are 55 of the population
00:00:55.760 and they overwhelmingly in the u.s um 68 vote democrat and so that's how they win elections
00:01:02.860 is by saying oh you get more abortion rights more abortion rights and so that that's what i would
00:01:07.560 guess but i don't know it's not even a voting issue in this nation at all yeah i still don't know what
00:01:13.340 like your question to me is i still find it hard to answer because i still don't know from that
00:01:18.960 response as to like why 22 weeks was decided by science at the time okay it was viability i have
00:01:24.780 no i have no i think it was viability so when when if the if the child can survive outside of the
00:01:30.720 mother's womb okay so as we said around and that used to be 28 weeks i believe so when they can
00:01:36.140 survive on its own without a mother basically yeah and as as technology develops obviously that's
00:01:41.120 happening earlier and earlier yeah and again like before they couldn't really see when they didn't
00:01:45.480 have scans as well that it used to be higher but they lowered it when we started to see the child
00:01:50.600 by the time you're 24 weeks pregnant the baby has a chance of survival if they're born most babies born
00:01:56.480 before this time cannot live because their lungs and other vital organs are not fully developed enough
00:02:03.200 um but i think in the uk you said it's 26 weeks or 24 24 and i want to say the earliest pregnancy
00:02:10.720 that survived is like 21 or 22 it's like two weeks before whenever it's legal here so based on based on
00:02:18.100 that information when a baby can survive on its own without affecting anyone else's human rights
00:02:26.860 then it's life until that point you're you're you're choosing a life over a life would you would
00:02:34.360 you agree it's too late here since there's been babies that have survived before what age is it here
00:02:39.620 24 weeks so i'm getting lost in the baby a baby and a baby no it's it's more legal here like in
00:02:46.080 the u.s it depends on the state but um and a baby has survived at 22 weeks how many babies
00:02:52.320 it's rare it's not what was the circumstances that that baby was born and do we actually know
00:02:57.900 the exact conception i'm sure i'm sure i'm sure they had a lot of medical care i'm sure that it's
00:03:03.880 not common um but then it kind of goes back to like are people more valuable that have access to
00:03:10.760 medical care so it you know but so i was just i need time to find i need time to process that
00:03:19.380 question because that's like a whole nother unpacking yeah you know like everyone i believe
00:03:25.880 should have access to like government funded medical care everyone in all countries i don't
00:03:31.960 believe that anyone should be prioritized or negligized based on their any anything at all
00:03:38.560 apart from where they are situation because you wouldn't give that same right to a child in the
00:03:43.400 womb say that again sorry um i'm saying apart from you said anyone but you're so in that you're
00:03:49.660 assuming that the child in the womb is not a person i'm not assuming that i acknowledge that it is a
00:03:54.500 human that is growing but it is it's one right it's one human right or another right you're you're
00:04:00.760 saying that the mother's human rights have to be sacrificed for that of something else that is
00:04:05.980 actually not its own isn't that isn't that motherhood it's like putting your kids before you
00:04:10.940 it's unconditional love yeah so we sacrifice the child are we sacrificing the child or we
00:04:18.380 sacrificing the mother would you prefer to sacrifice the mother over the child and no one's i don't think
00:04:23.220 anyone here is advocating for killing the mother no so then where's the sacrifice on that side of it
00:04:30.760 i i agree with pearl what mothers have to make sacrifice all the time i'm not arguing that the
00:04:36.060 mother should pass i'm just saying like i think i thought i heard you say mental health yeah so yeah
00:04:41.620 and i just feel like so um that little backstory i'm one of um 10 kids are you um and my um my
00:04:48.880 parents got my mom got pregnant when she was 17 wow um and by the same father of interest um so we
00:04:55.940 adopted three um so we took in three kids and they um biologically seven but one brother i didn't find
00:05:01.760 out about until i was 22 wow because they my mom um they were so young that they gave that kid up for
00:05:07.080 adoption and then they breathe and i didn't know he existed till i was 22 wow so i was kind of like what
00:05:13.640 if i yeah that's big but it's kind of like um um so i i just like look at my mom and i'm just like
00:05:23.860 you know it wasn't about her like it was about her kid first and like i don't know so we are all it
00:05:30.640 like you you would agree that um a woman should sacrifice her human rights that include mental
00:05:38.400 health if we if we include in mental health under the human i don't think that you should um for
00:05:43.320 the kill i'm not saying like kill the mother but i if mental health yeah i think you are killing a
00:05:49.040 part of her that's why people choose it right you are killing a part of a woman when you're taking
00:05:56.460 away the choice for her i think i i don't i mean i think you women like you kill a part of a woman
00:06:03.320 when you get an abortion i mean listen to their stories yeah so so it's but do i think i mean i
00:06:10.260 can't tell people what to do and how to live it's legal so that's per choice but no no i'm saying like
00:06:15.080 i don't have any say in it how it is now but i'm saying mental health yeah stick it out give the kid
00:06:20.140 up for adoption my mom came back from it she she had 10 kids and they started they started a
00:06:24.600 multi-million dollar business and they're broke broke dead broke they found a great family my brother
00:06:29.920 just got married they just he just had his first care how is your brother like like he's great he's
00:06:34.420 phenomenal he's like actually have a good like does he have like he had a great himself and he
00:06:38.860 yeah he's not because he had money oh no my parents were not like they um they were poor
00:06:44.080 so they had um like they they didn't grow up with money my dad was one of 13 my mom was one and i
00:06:50.540 were catholic we don't really believe in birth control have you ever been on the pill but um not really
00:06:58.080 no um i just careful i don't know um but yeah i mean i just see my mom and she just put it was
00:07:06.680 always like family this is why i say it okay it was always family like before um first and so even
00:07:16.180 though it was really it was super embarrassing for her she was 17 she was like the the family
00:07:21.160 like everyone kind of like no one else had done that in the family you know and it was really
00:07:26.360 embarrassing but like she always knew that it was about like it wasn't about her it was bigger than
00:07:32.160 her and now that i see like what greg turned out to be i just think it would be
00:07:36.060 okay this is why um i just think it would be like a shame um if she'd aborted him because
00:07:44.300 like he you know he grew up he just had his first kid he just got married so you agree with adoption
00:07:49.800 like that's like aligned with like uh if if someone has chosen that they don't want to continue through
00:07:55.480 to like full-time pregnancy and you would agree that it would be okay to put them up for adoption
00:08:00.740 so therefore give give them away but still allow them yeah and do you know how many families like
00:08:05.900 i think it's gonna there are going to be with women like the age of first marriage average age of
00:08:11.240 first marriage is 31 in the uk 90 of your eggs are gone by 30 there are going to be a lot
00:08:16.020 a lot of women that want to adopt there's a lot of kids to adopt right yeah and like a lot of times
00:08:23.980 like the argument i hear is uh pro-life people don't do anything with adoption but every like the most
00:08:29.620 pro-life people i know have been involved in adoption like my parents adopted three kids
00:08:33.680 and it's always it's always the pro-choice people that never adopted as many of you know i was just
