So if you were my son and afflicted with paralysis and depended upon me for life....does that make you a parasite?
Would that give me the right to end your life if I found you inconvenient? What is life to you? How do you define it?
No, because I would not be parasitic in a literal sense, I could survive without you, just with other people.
The fetus, up to a certain point, _needs_ to live off the mother's nutrients etc.
But still, you depend on others for survival. So you are a parasite.
Are you fit for this life still?
There's parasites that actually have to live directly off someone, and then there's people, who depend on other people.
Everyone depends on other people, that doesn't make them parasites.
But you're life depending on other lives to live. Without us, you couldn't.
Isn't that a parasite when your existence is directly dependent on another? How are you worthy of life but the kid isn't?
There's a huge difference, first of all I have full cognition. Also, if everyone (not just fetuses) that is dependent on another is a parasite and should be allowed to be killed, that makes no sense.
