A child becomes a person capable of being killed when it has completely proceeded in a living state from the body of itsI'm confused now; I always thought that once an unborn child reaches a certain point it does have rights. I thought because there is a certain point in a pregnancy where abortion is not legal I assumed it was because the child has gotten sovereign rights.
And since the unborn child in this case was seven months it was at that point, wasn't it?
Or have I got it completely backwards and the abortion limits aren't to do with the child's rights at all?![]()
mother, whether it has breathed or not, and whether it has an independent circulation or not, and whether the navel-string is severed or not.

and yes, victoria does allow late term abortions.
