| It hasn't changed my opinion, because I have always supported the womans right to choose.
I do however feel this is more proof that abortion in the earliest stages of development is not cruel, nor inhumane to the fetus.
I also notice that they have pretty much proven the brain is not connected until the 26th week, which to me is proof enough the self awareness, is not possible before this time.
Recognizing both that unwanted pregnancies will occur, and that late term abortion is once the fetus becomes self aware, I remain in the position that abortion at the earliest possible time is the most humane way to prevent unwanted pregnancy once all forms of contraceptive fail. I would still however, think that the "day after pill" is the best form of after-conception abortion.
Write the FDA about your thoughts on the morning after pill. They will be taking public input for the next 60 days while attempting to decide how to tackle the issue of over-the-counter, or prescription only if the pill is released.
Ignoring the problems of unwanted pregnancy is much more inhumane than empowering the mother to make a sound, rational, medical choice based on factual information in a legal enviroment should she choose abortion.
