Miscarriages are due to either something wrong with the embryo or chromosomal abnormalities of the parents. Although other external sources like drugs, alcohol, and stress play a vital role in miscarriages

The Author of the article claims that euthanasia is inherently wrong and can lead to drastic problems in our society with various support claims.

Are you pro-life or pro-choice? Do you believe that terminating pregnancy early is a good choice, or is it better to put up the baby for adoption? Should not every child be giving the opportunity to live and succeed? When is abortion a good thing and why? In America it always seems we are choosing the “easy wrong” vs. the “hard right.” How often do we think of the unborn child's life, and what it would take to give it an opportunity to live?

“Any American born after 1973 is a survivor of legalized abortion” (“Abortion”). This quote struck me because of its frankness. After it was legalized, many women had an option to abort their pregnancy against the Catholic Church’s wishes. Any child that was born after that year could have been aborted. This shows that many of the people that are living today could have been killed simply because the mother did not want them and they were considered to not be living in the womb. Being here today
