Well, in this case, representatives of the Church stated that they felt the little girl should have carried the twins to term and then had a C-section. The issue was the fact that her uterus was too small to support a pregnancy, much less a multiple pregnancy, and she could very well have died if allowed to remain pregnant. The Church didn't see it that way, and put more of an emphasis on the "innocent" twins than on the 9-year-old girl -- in fact, did not seem to value her life at all.
