But there is no difference to the embryo. Here are other ways to view the same question:
There is no difference between a couple having sex and their birth control working, and the same couple same sexual act but birth
control fails, but woman has an abortion.
The only "suffering" is borne by the woman. The child that will not exist will not exist in either scenario.
The potential child does not know his parents used birth control, so that is why he isn't here, and he wouldn't know his mother had
an abortion, either.
Actually, you can add a third scenario in which the couple just skips the sex that night altogether. Same end result, child that would
have been born had they copulated still doesn't know he wasn't brought to fruition.
Tell me the difference as it pertains to the embryo between a couple having sex and their birth control working, so a child is not born
from that union,
and
The same scenario but bc fails, woman gets pregnant, and aborts embryo at 4 weeks, so a child is not born from that union.
From the perspective of the child never born, what is the difference?

Every month that a woman has a viable egg and men have viable sperm, they decide whether or not to bring that life to fruition or not.
Every single egg and every single sperm are COMPLETELY UNIQUE, having different DNA from each other, and from the parents.
Each one represents a totally diffeent and unique potential person. I myself have often wondered if my husband and I hd conceived
one month earlier or one month later, what that child would have been like.
Would that be the child with blond hair and my husband's gift for drawing and painting? How about the child with my curls and my
personalty? Each one is completely unique.
The point is that they do exist, they aren't just imaginary. The real DNA that could create them is alive in the here and now. But they
can't all have the right to life.
