And many pro-life folks say that you're killing a child. It's his/her body.

We don't allow parents to to kill 'inconvenient' child post-birth† so according to their argument neither should we pre-birth.

It’s not yet a child when you perform an abortion!

If they are born it’s not an abortion anymore! Although I do support euthanasia… had I had some serious defect I wish my parents had the decency to kill me early on or have an abortion.
