When it's born, technically.

Do you expect a human to give birth to something other than a human? All the DNA is already there to tell it to become a human so therefore it has always been human, and only lacked the time to develop into one.
The correct terms for the developing child start with: (that do not include parasite!)
Ovum (unfertilized egg),
Zygote (fertilized egg) from the time of fertilization to 2 days later after that it is called a morula.
Once the morula has reached the uterus it is called a…
Blastocyst, by the end of the first week it has implanted in the uterine lining.
By 2 weeks it is called an embryo, from the 5th week of pregnancy (about 3 weeks since you found out) until the end of the pregnancy it is called a fetus.
“…the heart is beating by the 25th day after conception. By this time the embryo is only half the size of a pea, with eyes, ears and a mouth beginning to form. The embryo has simple kidneys, a liver a digestive tract, and a primitive umbilical cord. On the 26th day arm bud appear, two days later, leg buds appear…” -Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Newborn, by Simkin, Whalley & Keppler.
“By the eighth week after conception (tenth week of pregnancy), the embryo is structurally complete. The face has eyes, nose, ears and a mouth with lips, a tongue and teeth buds in the gums. The arms have hands with fingers & fingerprints. The legs have knees, ankles and toes.” -Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Newborn, by Simkin, Whalley & Keppler.

that's human, yet so are ova and sperm. And no, there is not any longer something interior the definition of the be conscious parasite that demands it to be distinctive species. A parasite is basically some thing that survives by skill of taking nutrition from yet another. A poultry that retains stealing from a member of that's comparable species could be a parasite. Edit: Sorry, yet you're truly incorrect on all counts. could a pores and skin cellular of yours be human or cat? that's human, so a single cellular may be human. Sperm and eggs are truly human. Your dictionary definition of parasite is....properly thoroughly and completely incomplete. What approximately brood parasites? Kleptoparasites? that's a difficulty-unfastened and nonscientific definition of the be conscious. A parasite is basically any organism (a cellular may be an organism after all) that steals supplies from yet another. that's an exceedingly extensive definition. you truly have not have been given any concept what you're talking approximately. you're truly of course an ideologically blinded moron.

I once read an article that it becomes a person when it becomes self-aware. Embryo's aren't self-aware. Though, personally, I wouldn't view it as a parasite, in the same sense we see tape-worm. Nobody does something to purposely put tape-worm in their bodies. =) And, you'd think, that if it was such a parasite, these women would be doing something to make sure they never get it. *wink*

That's a hard question to answer. Some will tell you that from the moment of conception a "fetus" is a person, others will tell you when the "fetus" becomes viable outside of the womb, and others still will tell you not until they are born. Also some will say when the mother first feels the "baby's" kick, or when the soul enters the fetus (but then, when does that happen). I'm not sure what I believe, but for me it is sometime between when the mother feels the first kick and the fetus is able to survive outside the womb. Just my opinion.

An embryo is NEVER a parasite. Some kids might BECOME a parasite, however.

that is a process--I never heard a parent say--I have a parasite living off me--to a mother--It will be a living organism-
her child. I've seen many dead fetus--but everyone of them was loved. At the grave--it is not a fetus--it is a child--that died early.

An unborn child is not a parasite and at no stage in the developement of a child is it ever a parasite.

After it turns 18 and moves out of the house, if you're using a nasty word like "parasite". :P

Hell, if you knew my brother and how he mooches, you'd think he's still a parasite. He's nearly 49 years old.
