You miss the point. The underlying idiotic premise is that at some point a
fetus is a life only if the mother wants it to be a life. If she doesn't
want it to be a life, it legally isn't and can be terminated. If the mother
wants it to be a life it legally is. For example, a person causing death to
the would-be mother who intended on keeping the baby can be charged with
double homicide (murder, manslaughter etc). Never mind the fact that the
same mother could have walked into an abortion clinic the next day and
terminate the pregnancy herself legally.

The whole issue is a giant joke.

And if someone takes your child across the country to a new location and
holds them there, it's kidnapping unless they do it at the behest of the
parents, then it's fine.

Fact: parents exercise their children's rights and those children only
get to make their own choices in certain areas as the reach certain ages.

Why?

You started by comparing to ways in which a fetus dies. How is mine
different?

Try and say something that actually addresses the point.
