Threat to the golden rule!

KANT> in weighing the morality of actions, would you want to be treated with disrespect? Disrespect to your own right to live? to your own life?
I do not think so.
"We must treat other people with respect rather than as means to selfish gratifications"
We should treat people with the respect they deserve and a child, an inocent child cannot be denied the right to exist, to explore, to live...
We have a moral obligation!
Lets FOCUS our moral obligations on the need to treat people with respect for their dignity and moral worth.
Even though a woman has their own choice, their own autonomy, to do what they choose to do with their body, she sure does not have the right to threaten and terminate the life of another being.
REESTATING> we must treat people with repect rather than as means to selfish gratification
in this case consider this mome as a selfish individual! CONSIDER> she is denying her child to live!

  1. Its true, we should treat people with respect, but only if they treat us with respect. No need to respect others really.
