In the case of incest, the child may be given birth to as a child with special needs and cannot function and take care of himself/herself like a normal person. If the situation is as such, the mother would have to exhaust her financial supplies to support a child that causes her mental suffrage, thus, abortion in this situation would be ideal. Lastly, at the current moment many foster homes and orphanages do not have a lot of vacancy. Enrolling a child into the foster care system would way even heavier on already scarce resources.

Many undocumented persons were brought to the United States by their parents and have grown up as Americans, often being unable to speak their parent’s native language. For many the prospect of being deported represents a catastrophe with the potential to destroy their lives. They desperately want immigration reform to ensure their status i... ... middle of paper ... ...te for more desirable higher paying jobs(Dinan). From a taxpayer perspective this will allow 11 million new citizens full access to benefits and the social safety net ultimately leading to a higher demand for government services and consequentially greater taxes(Heritage).

I am 19 years old, and this American issue is something that can make a huge impact in my life. Not only will it be hard to maintain my siblings, it will be hard to attend school and work all at the same time. Deportation is something I will always be afraid of, until my parents are finally able to become citizens. Having hardworking parents can be pretty much worthless to those who support deportation. Being immigrants is not easy because they do not have the same benefits an american citizen has.

Introduction Divorce is the most common factor affecting families of today. Though it wasn't relevant two decades ago, spouses are choosing to solve their martial displeasures with divorce. About 40%-50% of all first marriages and 60% of all second marriages end in divorce. There is one divorce every 13 seconds and about 46,523 divorces per week. Premarital pregnancies, living together before marriage, marrying at an early age, financial problems, and poor communications are some of the many reasons why marriages are ending so rapidly.
“There were more than two million divorces each year, affecting 3 million adults and more than two million children (Thompson, Parting 18).” Thus we can prognosticate that the American family of today is definitely ill and is in great need of a revival. The first and probably the most important step in order for couples to have a solid relationship is education. Education is the key to lowering divorce rate. Divorce is one of those issues where private and personal behavior exacts a huge public cost, “but because divorce and marriage are such intensely personal issues, most citizens are loath to support any program that injects government into the process (Uncoupling 223).” We share the view that new laws or public programs cannot solve this crisis. However, it seems equally clear we cannot sit idle as divorce ravages families and society.
To further show his hard stance on abortion, Clinton vetoed a bill in April that would have banned a rarely used procedure termed "partial birth abortions." President Clinton defended his decision, calling it justifiable in extreme situations, such as cases of rape, incest and to save the life of the mother. Unlike Bosnia and gays in the military, Clinton has not wavered on this issue. Bob Dole on the other hand has taken just the opposite stance on abortion. Dole opposed the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion.
The term “anchor baby” refers to a child born to a noncitizen mother in a country which has birthright citizenship, especially when viewed as providing an advantage for family members seeking to secure citizenship or legal residency, as defined in the Race and Racism in the United States: An Encyclopedia of the American Mosaic. There have been many disputes on whether children of illegal immigrants should be granted citizenship at birth. Most immigrants come to the United States to have a better life for themselves and their families. By coming to America illegally, it causes society to suffer for their greediness. Recently, I thought children shouldn’t be penalized for their parent’s actions, but that’s not how i see the issue anymore.
In Adoptive Migration By Jessaca Leinaweaver does great job on describing the struggle that couples go through when trying to adopt a child. The even bigger struggle shows what parents go through that give their children up for adoption. This book was mainly based on international adoption i.e. Peru to Spain, many couples would decide to adopt from Peru. Adoptive Migration, then continued to talk about the difficulties on the rules each country had when wanting to adopt, most parents weren 't able to adopt due to the rules and regulations being so strict.
Color of Justice If I could make any law, what would it be and why? When a law is passed, it can have a large effect on the citizens of that area. It has been said that the first year of a child’s life is the basic foundation of their entire life. In order to make that first year successful, money, time and of course love are critical. However because the current policies that exist in America, mothers are denied an easy balance between work, money, and time for their children.
