I hate the idea, but an innocent girl might die, be seriously hurt, or just have her life ruined because some terrible creep attacked her. Think about it. An twelve year old gets raped and gets pregnant. She can't go out in public anymore. Soccer? Nope. Ballet? Uh-uh. Even school? Probably not, her mom will probably take her out of school and homeschool her. But it's more than that. She will probably already be getting therapy because of the trauma from getting raped. But what if this scares her about getting pregnant ever again? What if every male walking by scares her? What if giving birth when her body is so small and young permanantly messes up her ability to give birth? What if giving birth gives her some sort of horrible injury. Girls, think of how terrible and painful an injury right there would be. What if having the baby inside of her is too much on her body and some sort of terrible accident happens, killing or injuring both the girl and the baby? What if the baby is born deformed? What if giving birth kills her? The horrible possibilities are endless. While I think consentually getting pregnant and killing the baby is selfish, putting all of the above possibilities (and more) on a young girl is selfish. No one should do that to her.

I agree. Kids are too young to be pregnant no matter what, and if it comes out of rape, it can permanently damage their trust in adults or their body-self-esteem.
