Is abortion acceptable for a young rape victim?

Didn't realize you were OP, had to adjust my comment accordingly... I always thought I was pro-choice, until I seen a video, I forget how many weeks the child was, I can look for the link if you'd be interested? It was CG, so not too graphic, where the child's limbs were ripped off, pulled out, then abdomen, then the skull had to be crushed.

Even being pro-choice it turned my stomach. I'm also a father, had my child when I was 15, the mother wanted nothing to do with her after she was born, so I went to school, had a full time job, and took care of my child, with the help of my Mother, no regrets. Haven't seen her Mom in 12 years. She's graduating summa cum laude this year. So some of that may have been an issue.

However, I'm always curious and tend to change my stance. Honestly, I don't understand, I'm a man, I never will, I realize that. Why it would take 26 weeks to decide? I honestly think one should know at the latest, 7 weeks.

But I don't only mean rape, I cannot comprehend keeping a baby that was the result of rape, or waiting that long to abort from rape. And if it was rape, what type of rape, complete stranger or creepy friend?
