A pregnant woman visited her doctor with great distress.
"I'm pregnant again, and I have a one year old child! I can't afford to have another baby right now, I just can't."
"But life is precious," the doctor replied. "And abortions are dangerous. Certainly there is another option."
But the woman insisted there was no other way. The doctor was troubled and thought for a moment.
"I have the solution for you!" he said. "Why don't we kill your one year old child? That way you won't have to care for two children, and there is less risk for you."
The woman was apauled that her doctor suggested such a thing. "How could you suggest that I kill my own child?!"
He replied, "But didn't you just suggest the same to me?"
