It is your right to believe in what you want, so is abortion good or bad? Abortion is the “termination of a pregnancy”. So for the anti abortionist this is considered slaughtering the baby. They believe that the fetus is actually a separate human life form. So if one has an abortion it is considered murder.
None of the methods doctors use for abortions is safe. This story is about a woman who died because she had an abortion. Mary Pena, a 43 year-old mother of five, died after she underwent a second-trimester abortion at San Vicente Hospital in Los Angeles in December, 1984. When Mary started to bleed severely from the abortion, the surgeon decided to perform a hysterectomy on her. While in recovery from the operations,
Abortion is murder no matter when a person believes life begins. The fetus is a human being even though it is unborn. The child has no sense of self and should have the right to get a chance to live. During abortion, the baby is mutilated, torn apart, and vacuumed out of the mother, resulting in pain for the fetus (Whyabortioniswrong.net). This is wrong and should not be allowed.
An abortion can happen spontaneously due to complications during the pregnancy or can be induced. An abortion that is induced to help save the life of the women is called a therapeutic abortion; whereas an abortion induced for any other reason is called an elective abortion. More than a third of the average two hundred and five million pregnancies each year (worldwide) are not planned for, and twenty percent of them usually end in induced abortion. An abortion is referred to as a therapeutic abortion when it is done to: (1) save the life of the pregnant woman; (2) preserve the woman’s mental health; (3) terminate a pregnancy that would result in a baby born with a fatal disorder; or (4) reduce the number of fetuses to reduce health risks usually associated with multiple pregnancy. An abortion is called an elective abortion when it is done at the request of the woman, for reasons other than maternal or fetal health.
Each year, almost half of all pregnancies among American women are unintended. About half of these unplanned pregnancies, 1.3 million each year, are ended by abortion. In my opinion, abortion is down right wrong. Life begins at human conception, therefore enabling abortion to fall under the category of murder. Abortions are not nearly as safe as many think for the mother, physically or mentally.
But whatever the situation, there is never an acceptable reason to get an abortion. Here are some reasons why abortion should be illegal: Adoption is another option, many women are endangered by it, birth control is another option, it can also cause misscarriages if you have 2 or more. The first reason why abortion should be illegal is because adoption is another option. Adoption is always brought up when people talk about aborting an unwanted child. There are tons of people who get rejected when they apply to adopt a child.
“The termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a fetus or embryo prior to being capable of normal growth.” Abortion should be illegal because it ends the life of an innocent child who has yet to experience life. Nearly half of all pregnancies among American women are unintended, and four in 10 of these end in abortion. There are two groups of people that have different opinions on abortion they are pro-life and pro-choice. Pro- life is the group of people that find abortion to be wrong, while pro-choice is for letting the person decide what they want to do with their baby. Some of the reasons people are pro-life can do with the mothers health, religion, and the reason why the pregnancy happened.
Women should not have the right to an abortion just because the fetus has a disease or deformation. Doctors that tell mothers about the diseases or deformations the baby has, often result in abortions. Diseases or deformations should not matter when it comes to having a child because the mother should love her child just the way they are. Mothers worry about the health costs of the baby’s disease or deformation but there are a lot of financial aid and heath care programs that can help. “Women who are able to get Medicaid in states that exclude coverage for abortion have abortion rates of about half of those women in states that give money to support abortion care" (Balch 6).
But whatever the situation, there is never an acceptable reason to get an abortion. There are many reasons why a woman should not have an abortion. The reason I think that women should not choose to have an abortion is: it is called murder, it can cause medical complications later in life, and there’s no such thing as an unwanted child. First Abortion is called murder. Even if a mother is willing to accept the consequences, she is taking away a human life.
We deny the unborn child its right to live and experience the world. No one has thee right to take the life of another person, even an unborn child. Furthermore, abortion denies the mother the joy and opportunity to raise the baby, and in the long run, usually ends up hurting the mother as the emotional effects become worse and worse. This problem is even more common when there is pressure by others on the woman to have the abortion, and she does so reluctantly. Another reason why I do not believe abortions should be done is because of the many risks involved for the woman undergoing the abortion.
