So you all seem to agree that teenagers have limited rights - not the same as adults or as one of you put "when they are of legal age" or something. So do Americans get more rights as they get older? If so, what rights do they start with and why? And who decides which rights they gain on which birthdays?
Working backwards:
21 - to drink
18 - to vote
16 - to drive
So then, one could argue that a fetus having not reached even its actual birthday has even fewer rights than teenagers. And you all seem quite comfortable with affording teenagers fewer rights.
