Do parents really have the right to abort their unborn child?

As per constitution, if a mother is willing she can abort her child. But according to me, it is a crime to kill a child even if it is not born on earth. He/she has the right to live even if his/her parents think it is not the right time for kids. Shouldn't that law be moderated to unmarried mothers only?
Please note, I am fully excluding abortions of unmarried mothers from this discussion.

Arun has very rightly answered Sandhya's query and I think it is justified, if abortion is limited to unmarried girls as suggested by Sandhya then many other issues would come up. So 4 reasons given in the act of Law nearly cover up the matter according to me.
Vinodh why are you doing spamming here.I had observed you many times posting twice the same content.
Sandhya rani what is the story of the movie will you tell us briefly.

I am saying first, it is purely a ghost story. The film's name is Kaana kanmani( The child not seen). Remake of Hindi film-Gauri
Padma priya and Jayaram, newly married couple decides to abort their first child because they have not settled yet. Though parents from both sides and the doctor requests them not to do it(Dialogues are really heart touching) they opt to carry out the decision they made and abort the child. Years later, they got a girl. When a story starts the kid is 5 or 6 years old.(Story told earlier is a flashback) But suddenly parents saw changes in their child and she asks them to go to Jayaram's home to spend their holidays. Here, success of events occur when this child behaves in a non-human way. Through her, the unborn child tells them how much pain has she felt while her parents killed her though she tried to say, "Don't kill me" and tells about the painful world where she lives filled with darkness and thunder, how much she desire for her parents' love, feeling how much jealous when she see her parents loving her sister. The questions she ask, both of them can't answer. She says, she will return back along with her sister to teach them a lesson. But at last, after torturing her parents, she returns alone, asking a promise from them, "Whenever I feel fear when I see thunder and lightning, I will come to you. Please give me a shelter in your lap". They agrees and she comes back when next rain and lightning showers. Really a touching story.
WOw nice story but this stories will be good to look in theatres but no one will remember this after the ending of movie.
But the director has put all his efforts to convey this social message and the performance of the little child, Nivedita is outstanding and she will have a bright future.
There are many films which show the social elements in it but the people won't take it seriously.

sasi, im not doing purposely. As my internet connection is very poor today. Thats why this is happen. My intention is not to spam.
Vinodh just take care of this other wise you will be banned so we will miss you.
You are right Vinodh, same thing happened to me few weeks back when my internet was slow and I faced same problem, they should give us the option of deleting repeated message because though our intention is not of spamming yet people may think so.
Sandhya it was a very nice and touching story although how many people remember the message it conveys is doubtful.
In India, films with a social message always fail in Box office. We, viewers opt only entertainment stuff. But Hollywood films, usually have new ideas....Even if not entertaining, people love to watch.
This is really true to our Indian set up. But this should change soon.
I feel aborting the unborn child is crime.The birth of the child is not when it come out the mothers womb. When it formed in the womb.If parents dont want a child then they would have taken precautions before that child wont form in the womb.

100% correct :)

I absolutely agree with you..
yes, friends, if parents dont want a child then they should take precautions. But sometimes it happens , unfortunately then there will be no chance to escape and they do abortions.

That is what the same thing I want to tell all the parents. Never kill your child, either if it is born or unborn.
Look you people expect things to happen in normal which is not always possible in reality. Even after taking adequate precautionary measure there is every chance of being pregnant.

Then why can't you accept it as God gift and allow that child to live.

I know many couples in my life (even very poor people), who got a child even 10-13 years after they have done surgery to stop pregnancy. They are not aborting the unborn child, since they believe it is a crime and believing it to be God's gift and fate.

This topic can be discussed on and on and there can really be no single conclusion or a politically correct answer to such a complicated question.

But leaving aside the moral niceties and talk of ethics, religions etc. etc. has anyone given a single thought to the population explosion in this country? Do not we as citizens of this country, have a moral duty to try and contain population growth, which has already propelled beyond control? Or are we going to wait for something like that happened in China to happen? Also, have you seen what happens to children who are let come into this world simply because they a gift of God? I have seen many of such children and they lead lives worse than animals!
