Maintain strict standards
 

As a pro-life woman, I contest pro-choicers argument that restrictions on abortion are aimed at depriving women of their rights.  The pro-choice movement demands abortion as a guaranteed right on medical grounds and speaks of it as a choice in "'reproductive health."   I don't see how killing a child has anything to do with reproduction.  But if the pro-choice movement insists on medicalizing abortion, they should understand that, to guarantee women's health, the clinics that perform abortions should be held to the strictest standards.
