The Supreme Court's decision in the Planned Parenthood v. Casey case in 1992 reaffirmed abortion as a constitutional right

Don't be obtuse. Roe V Wade acknowledged a woman's constitutional right to abortion and Dodd reversed that decision, declaring that there is no constitutional right to abortion.
“Roe isn’t really about the woman’s choice, is it?” Ginsburg said. “It’s about the doctor’s freedom to practice…it wasn’t woman-centered, it was physician-centered.”

I have NEVER heard Democrats explain why allowing states to determine abortion rules/regulations makes them so angry.
Yes you have. You just refuse to admit that Roe V Wade acknowledged a woman's constitutional right to reproductive choice, and that the Dodd ruling revoked a woman's constitutional to reproductive choice and gave it to elected state legislators.
Face it though, you don't like it being a states' right any more than I do. You want a federal ban on abortion. You don't want the people deciding through their votes. You don't want states like New York and California to offer safe and legal abortions. You want to go further and ban abortion on a federal level.
A federal ban on abortion is not practical and would be cruel. Admit it!
Why do you say that? Why isn't a 6 week federal abortion ban practical for everyone if it's practical for Texas women?

Everyone is getting off track. First, it must be determined who owns the little person's life. A Human, or God, or the Government?

When they reach the age of majority.
Constitutionally speaking.

Nice try. I'm not moving away from anything. It's just really hardfor you to admit that your beloved SCOTUS revoked a constitutional right from The People that The Peopleenjoyed for 50 years. They didn't just take it from women, they took it from the men too, they took it from families too.

Largely, no. They are under the umbrella of their parents rights.

The Roe Court ruled that states may not categorically proscribe abortions by making their performance a crime. The constitutional basis for the decision rested upon the conclusion that the right of privacy embraces a woman’s decision to carry a pregnancy to term. With regard to the scope of that privacy right, the Court stated that it includes only personal rights that can be deemed ‘fundamental’ or ‘implicit in the concept of ordered liberty’ and bears some extension to activities related to marriage, procreation, contraception, family relationships, child rearing, and education. Such a right, the Court concluded, is broad enough to encompass a woman’s decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.
In 2022, a majority of the Court overruled the Court’s prior decisions in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, determining that the Constitution does not confer a right to an abortion. In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Court maintained that it was returning the regulation of abortion to the people and their elected reprentatives.1 Writing for the Court in Dobbs, Justice Samuel Alito described Roe as egregiously wrong from the start because the Constitution makes no reference to abortion and a right to the procedure is not implicitly protected by any constitutional provision

I see where you're going, so lets just put a quick end to it.
Is child abuse illegal?
How about sexual abuse?
Does the penalty depend on the age of the child?
If yes why is that?
“My criticism of Roe is that it seemed to have stopped the momentum on the side of change,” Ginsburg said. She would’ve preferred that abortion rights be secured more gradually, in a process that included state legislatures and the courts, she added. Ginsburg also was troubled that the focus on Roe was on a right to privacy, rather than women’s rights.
“Roe isn’t really about the woman’s choice, is it?” Ginsburg said. “It’s about the doctor’s freedom to practice…it wasn’t woman-centered, it was physician-centered.”
