Choice is the basis of [[law]].  Choice is a fundamentally [[human]] activity, since law applying to animals does not apply to the choices made by animals.  Instead, laws such as [[animal control]] and [[animal abuse]] laws apply to the choices of humans in regards to animals.

Proponents then claim that in cases of [[rape]] and incest, the choice to reproduce was made by someone else, and that she never had a choice.  Opponents then try to make the claim that the vast majority of abortions are not rape and incest cases, and are made for economic and personal reasons that, while affecting the mother's life in sometimes severe ways, do not rise to the level of balancing one life's value against another.
