If sovereignty over one's body is a prerequisite for freedom, then why is the baby's body and life being violated something that is unimportant? Abortions terminate a life with its own body that is temporarily inside a woman's body for its own debt, after 9 months the baby exits. So I ask again, why is the baby's right to life, sovereignty over his/her body never considered and seen as something that should be violated?

Because it is not sovereign and never has been - it is entirely dependent on the mother until birth.
It's a fact of life that anything or anyone who is entirely dependent and cannot exist independently is necessarily at the mercy of whatever they depend on.
So to you it makes sense to kill a baby because of dependency on the mother for a limited time and I am the one who is for the violation of freedom?
