Description[?]:
| This bill is to remove the draconian restriction imposed on women and children. It is a woman's right to abort a fetus until it is born.

| Message | We cannot support child labor. The tendency for corruption is too great; children are not able to stand up for themselves as workers, and unscrupulous employers will always take advantage of them, moreso than of adult laborers. |
| Date | 14:39:14, September 01, 2007 CET | From | Socialist Reformist Party | To | Debating the The Freedom For Children And Women Initiative |
| Message | Children should be under education, not working in the coal mines. Abortion on the other hand should truly be a womans right during the entire course of the pregnancy! |
