Apple, twisting words was not my purpose. My intent was to point out that I understood Part's answer, and also believe it was heartfelt. However, as of today, abortion is an option. If Roe v. Wade were overturned, it no longer would be an option. Therefore, by supporting that, one would, in essence, be forcing their daughter to carry her rapist's child. That's why I asked MY question the way I did.

I understand that you, Apple and TIS, do not agree with legalized abortions. However, I wondered how you would feel if your daughters availed themselves of this legal avenue, or would it not matter at all? I do know a couple whose teenage daughter was pregnant. They promised to raise the child as their own and fully support her. Then, when she was about seven months pregnant, they told her they would never allow the child in their house and she would have to give it up for adoption. Since she was only 16, she did so. Her parents told her that they lied so that she wouldn't have an abortion. I was wondering your take on something like that.
