'Considering an abortion is a question of choice, not a question of life.' Discuss.

This question raises a number of issues: whether women have complete freedom over their body's or not; at what point does a foetus become a person; should a foetus with a disability be treated differently; what can justify as a 'good reason' for having an abortion; and the extent to which the father's prefered decision should weigh into the woman's actions.
