The Controversial Issue of Abortion

Abortion is a very controversial issue. Ever since people started

hearing about abortions people had their own opinions about it. I am

pro-life. I think that if you put yourself into the position then you

should have to deal with the repercussions. Why should an innocent

child have to give their life for two other peoples mistakes? If you

are not ready for the responsibility then don't take the risk.

I believe that abortion is murder. I think that you are taking life

from something that deserves a chance. The second that the sperm meets

the egg there is a chance for life and it should be treated as a live

child from that point on. On the website www.standupgirl.com someone

asked a question: "what about the child with disease that will die a

slow death or live his life as a burden to his family?" The webmaster

responded with: "Do you believe the new "ethic" should be that we kill

the suffering or burdensome? Some of these cases are tragic, some are

also inspirational. We cannot assume the responsibility for killing an

unborn child simply because the child has not yet been seen in public.

The child's place of residence does not change what abortion does -

kill a human being." That quote is the very same thing that I believe.

It basically says that you do not know the potential of a child.

Whether you find out if it has Down syndrome or it is perfectly

healthy. Abortion kills every chance and everything that the child has

in it's future. Whether it is death from birth difficulties or

becoming a successful person. Every child deserves a chance. Why

should these babies be different? They deserve every wonderful thing

they could be given! Abortion was supposedly legalized to stop child

abuse. This was the decision made in the Roe vs. Wade case. Why would

legalizing the death of children help child abuse? And it didn't help

child abuse ratings.
