Abortion is a topic that is controversial in today’s society. I am in favor of abortion because I do believe it is the woman 's right to choose what to do what her body. A woman should not be constricted by the law that she has to have the baby. A woman should be able to decide whether or not she wants to keep the baby or not. In the end, she will have to live with her decision not the government or society. I am in favor of abortion because no one has the right to choose what happens to my body. If I want an abortion, no one else should have a problem with it because it is not affecting them. It is not affecting anyone else’s body, only the person that has to go through the abortion. In the case of a rape, abortion becomes influential in a women 's life. The baby would be a constant reminder of the trauma she experienced. Abortion would help her overcome the trauma and move on. Banning abortion can lead to women using illegal means to abort the baby. Every child in the world should feel loved and wanted when being born. The parents or parent should be ready for the child. If the parent or parents are not ready they should have the chance to an abortion. Another reason I am in favor of abortion is if the parents do not want the child, the child will most likely go to a foster home or orphanages, which are already running low on resources and are beyond capacity. Abortion is overall a safe procedure with the advancement of technology. Illegal abortion can cause pain and death, so by allowing abortion women have professional and sanitary care. Teen pregnancies have been increasing over the past few years, out of these pregnancies many of them are unwanted. These girls should have the right to abortion, so they can continue their edu... ... middle of paper ... ... of another family that wants a child. Abortion is distributing the natural order of things. If we didn’t have this technology, abortion would not be possible and would have resulted in death for the women. I do not favor abortion because it creates a culture where it is okay and accepting to kill an innocent child. It strikes me that people don’t realize that it could have been them that could have been aborted or killed. If you put yourself in the situation you wouldn 't have wanted to be killed or aborted. You would want the same rights and right to live as much as any other human being. I do not agree with abortion because of what it stands for and what it causes. Having a baby is a beautiful thing and destroying it is wrong. Abortion is not something I agree with, it has become acceptable in the eye of society today which is causing more pain then happiness.
For some, abortion is a touchy subject like politics and religion. In America, abortion has always been a controversial topic of discussion. The Supreme Court in the case Roe vs Wade case set the way of guidelines and the right for women to have an abortion if she chooses. In 2015 abortions is still an ongoing debate amongst religious groups, politicians and normal citizens. People that are for the rights of women to abort are often criticized and ridiculed for standing up for their personal beliefs. There are people who have conditioned their minds to think that women should not be allowed to have abortions if she was not raped or a result of incest, which I strongly disagree with that type of thinking. However, it is the law of the land, it is a women’s right to choose and she has to live with the psychological effects of her choice.
Abortion is a very strong issue in our society today and is an on-going issue in most areas of the world. An abortion, for those who don't know the term, is where a pregnant female medically terminates a fetus or has a miscarriage. With the many recent controversies about abortion in the recent years, society has split in two on the subject. There are the Anti-abortionists, the people whom are against the termination of the fetus. And the Pro-abortionists, those who are for the abortion of the fetus. Even though it may seem like a black and white matter, it does certainly have a gray area for both sides. From health issues, laws being implemented, or the different methods of preventing pregnancies, there are many views from the women on this matter.
Out of numerous controversial subjects, the topic of abortion has made its way up the list of most talked about. By medical definition, an abortion is the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus (“Abortion”). Among the controversy, two sides have formed. One side is known as pro-life and the other pro-choice. Pro-life supporters state that life beings at the moment of conception and believe that the unborn baby has the same rights as its mother. Pro-choice supporters believe that it is the woman’s right to decide what she does with her body and that pro-life supporters are against the rights of women and free choice. I personally believe
For many years people have always argued about abortion and the rights a woman has to her body regarding abortion. Like with any other argument there are two sides, there is a pro-life side (where there are people that are against abortion) and then there is a pro-choice sides (where people think abortion is an okay thing). The pro-life side of the argument would state that you are killing a life, there are alternatives, and abortion can cause medical complications later on in life. The side that is pro-choice would argue that abortion is a safe medical procedure, a woman needs to have ability to control her body, and there are reasons why they should not carry out with the pregnancy.
Abortion is a highly controversial topic of debate; this debate evokes strong emotions on both sides. Abortion is a pretty cut and dry topic; you are either Pro-Life or Pro-Choice. Pro-life advocates are people who believe abortion is ethically and morally wrong, and that it is the government’s job to protect all people including the lives of unborn children. Pro-choice supporters say that it is not the government’s responsibility to protect the unborn children, and women should have the right to determine whether or not they continue with their pregnancies; by choosing to have an abortion. Women’s rights concerning abortion were brought to the forefront during the court case of Roe vs. Wade in 1973. This court case gave women the right to abortion under the due process clause in the 14th amendment of the United States Constitution. (Jost, 5) It is this ruling that brought about the split and differences of opinion of the way abortion should be handled among the American population. Pro-Choice supporters are fighting to keep this in place, while Pro-Life supporters are desperately trying to overturn this ruling. The debate of abortion still holds strong today, between Pro-Life and Pro-Choice, almost 40 years since the Supreme Court ruling. Abortion is classified in two points of views: Pro-Choice supporters and Pro-Life advocates. Roe vs. Wade should be overturned to make the act of receiving an abortion illegal to protect the lives of the unborn children.
I am pro-abortion due to my belief that abortions are necessary in many different situations. To understand my opinion on the abortion topic, I believe it is crucial to understand what form of abortion I will be discussing in this essay. I will be using the definition stated in the Oxford Dictionary which states that abortion is “The deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy.” (Oxford Dictionaries) I personally believe that an abortion should be performed during the first 28 weeks of gestation unless a medical problem presents itself that would put the mother at risk for her life. There are many reasons I believe that abortions should be legal and I will be going over a few reasons
Abortion gives pregnant women a say in pregnancy. Abortion should be available because without it, it is a safety hazard. Also, no abortion means more overpopulation and infanticide. Finally, involuntary birth can ruin a woman’s life. Without abortion, pregnant women our being deprived of their human rights!
My view when it comes to abortion relates to the situation if severe problems occur that is threatening the life of the expectant mom. In certain issues like when women or young teens are raped they should be given the option to abort the unwanted pregnancy from a criminal act. Women and young teens using abortion as a way to escape responsibilities from immature actions is not right because of adoption agencies that offer services that would place the children with loving families and offer them a chance at life.
Abortion has been a controversial topic in the U.S ever since it became legal in 1973 after the Roe v. Wade case. Abortion is defined as the, “the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy.” Pro-life supporters believe that abortion is unethical and argue that it is the mother’s responsibility to own up to her actions. They also argue that there is always the option of adoption, and that abortion could be very dangerous. I am pro-life and believe that the government doesn’t have the right to decide what a woman can or can’t do with her body.
...ct potential life at conception, and because of this there is absolutely no way I could ever be in favor of abortion. Abortion is murder, the only exception I can think of would be if the mother’s life was at risk, but besides that, I don’t see how allowing abortion is enhancing women’s rights. Citizens are supposed to be protected by the state, so why are these unborn children being deprived of this protection? According to the website lifenews.com 1.2 million babies dies every year from abortion. These statistics left me in shock and feeling very upset about the current state of affairs. I’m tired of hearing all these argument that try to justify abortion, to me, none of them are valid. I think people should really consider looking deeper into this topic, if they did perhaps they would come to realize that abortion is an inhumane procedure that should be illegal.
Abortion is a voluminous topic today all around the world. Differing viewpoints on abortion are recognized in politics, religion, and throughout the general population. There is a small amount of people who are nonchalant on the subject. Women have abortions for many different reasons and according to certain groups these reasons are either justified or not. Everyone tends to have their own articulated opinion, and many vocalize tenaciously what they believe. Pro-life individuals along with religion are sanguine that abortion is ethically and morally erroneous. Whereas those who are pro-choice say that abortion is inconsequential and the mother’s choice is more important than the fetus. Reasons to not get an abortion include risks involved in receiving an abortion. In some cases death can occur. However, there are other alternatives to abortion. For example, raising the child and adoption.
There are thousands of women in the world make the mistake of getting pregnant. Yes, there are forms of contraception but they are not 100% effective in preventing pregnancy. Approximately 1.4 million abortion procedures are done each year in the United States, with 30% of those women being younger than forty-five years old (ProCon). Without abortion, there would be an abundance of children who are brought into the world unwanted and not being able to have the essentials they need to go through life successfully. The most difficult responsibility a woman would have to go through is finances. 85% of women who wish to have an abortion are unmarried and have to support the child alone (“Abortion Procedures”). Abortion can save a woman from going through financial distress when she is aware that she is not financially stable. Teen pregnancy is common in the world and they are not at a point in life where taking care of someone else, other than themselves, is possible to do alone. Thirty-nine states allow minors to go through the abortion procedure with parent consent (“Abortion Procedures”). All fifty states should allow this because if teens could not receive that choice, then they would have to carry an unwanted baby that they could not take care of after giving birth. Most abortion procedures are during the first trimester (Lowen). During the first weeks of pregnancy the development of the fetus is a gather of cells, therefore killing cells is not killing an actual person so abortion should not be considered murder.
Abortion has been accepted by the United States of America ever since the monumental Roe vs. Wade case in the early 1970’s, but is still a very controversial issue. Many people are for and against abortions. Some people say that the child inside its mother’s womb deserves the opportunity to live, while others believe that a mother has the right to choose whether or not her fetus can live or die. Other advocates for abortion claim that abortion helps keep the threat of overpopulation down. They also say that in many extreme cases, it is in the best interest of the mother and the child that the fetus be aborted. Abortion helps keep the crime rate low, so it should remain legal, they also say.
Abortion has been one of the most talked about topics in society just about anywhere from television, magazines, whether or not it should be the right or wrong thing to do. Abortion is a very sensitive issue to discuss, because of its nature. Many people have said that abortion is a very bad thing to do and it should not even be choice whether or not to abort a living fetus. People think that abortion is committing murder as it is killing the human fetus. However, others feel that a woman should have a voice and have the right to choose to keep the child or not and that it is not murder until the baby is born. Majority of individuals who believe that abortion is bad say that the fetus is human who is partly being formed and to have an abortion is considered to be murder. For the people who think an abortion is ok, say that it’s not considered murder unless the child is born. I believe that abortion should be seen in which the stage the fetus is in. if the fetus is in an early stage of pregnancy it is not considered murder, but if the fetus has already began to develop into a larger fetus then it is indeed considered to be murder. There are times when abortion can be accepted, if the mother is having complications due to pregnancy. For example if the mother is enduring complications in her pregnancy that can harm her, because of the child in that case it is ok to perform an abortion to help save the mother’s life. It is also very important to understand this type of situation. The mother has the right to have an abortion and it is her decision because a mother knows best about her health conditions.
First, I feel that abortion should be illegal because it can result in medical complications and also psychological trauma. It can cause premature birth and could also cause a baby to be handicapped in future pregnancies. A woman who has had an abortion is 2.3 times more likely to get cervical, ovarian, and or liver cancer. Abortion is the cause of 47,000 woman’s death yearly. It can cause depression for at
