I believe they should only be used in certain situations and should not be used all the time. The situations I don’t think they should be used in are for young women to get them. According to one source half the percentage of women getting an abortion done is below twenty-five. This is most likely due to a young woman or teenager not being careful with sex and then getting an abortion because they are not married and unable to take care of a baby. I believe, however, that if a girl is ready to have sex at a young age that she should have to face the consequences of getting pregnant if it happens.
Although the free-love movement was full swing, single women had a hard time getting the pill. Still, freedom from fear of pregnancy, women had more latitude to choose partners and determine the timing and frequency of sex when women take the pill. Despite fear of pregnancy there was a powerful check on promiscuity information that was treated as the equivalent of pornography. The pill was embraced by millions of women for a very personal reason. According to a Time in 1964, they declared that the “second sexual revolution” was built on the message that “sex will save you and libido makes you free” .Everyone’s open-mindedness was the new normal; the pursuit of pleasure overtook the pursuit of
Some reasons being the they believe that the fetus is not living within the first trimester, making it okay to abort the baby within the first twelve weeks of pregnancy. They also think that because the fetus is not living that it should have no rights, also making it okay to abort. Another reason is in a life threatening situation, such as rape or an accident that would put the mother is harm, the mother should be able to abort the baby. I cannot completely argue against this statement, but if you’re raped and it is an unwanted child, there are others that might want that child. You could always have the baby and give it up for adoption.
Some believe the drug RU-486 or better known as the “morning after pill” is such an exception. However, some unplanned pregnancies happen due to result of rape or incest, which makes it safer to use the after morning pill because it does not come with as many risks as a surgical abortion. For instance, the only risk concern is the 97 out of 100 percent that the after morning pill will not work successfully. Although it is safer to seek other sources, such as adoption. It was found that at least 9,100 abortions each year are attributed to pregnancies that occur because of forced sexual intercourse, according to the Alan Guttmacher institute, “Stephanie Poggi of the National Network of Abortion Funds wrote in 2005.” This is smart to do instead of a surgical abortion, for the reason being that women have a chance of further complications.
Teens and the outcome based on the laws on minors and abortion If you had a teenage daughter, how would you feel if she came home and said she was pregnant? Many teens fear to bring home a bad report card, getting in trouble at school, or even bringing home the boyfriend. Although, these are reasonable fears, the fear of telling your parents you’re pregnant at 13 is greater. Often the answer to teenage pregnancy is abortion, or illegal abortion. In many states, abortion is difficult to receive without parental consent.
When a drug-abusing mother uses these substances and the baby is born the baby can have lifelong and mental problems. For example babies born to mothers who use crack cocaine during pregnancy “crack babies” usually have problems in areas such as cognitive performance, information processing and attention to tasks. These areas are vital for success not just in school, but also in life. For example lets say a drug-abusing mother who uses cocaine gives birth to a child. The child the mother has might be more prone to getting addicted to crack or other
C. Credibility material: A friend of mine around my age was using the birth control pill. The main reason she started using it as other females was to help reduce her menstrual cycle. She had been on the pill for a yeah and a half and started seeing changes within herself. Her mood swings would change rapidly and constant out of nowhere and caused her to gain weight. D. Preview: First I will begin by explaining the history of the birth control, second how it works, and last the risk of consuming it.
why should they hav’t to suffer a pregnancy that they didn’t plan for?, A women should have the right to get pregnant when they want and a horrible case like that I strongly agree they should have a choice instead of people forcing them to carry a child that their not ready for. Unfit teenage parents should be able to get an abortion because a teenager can not barley defend themselves. How are they possibly going to take care of a child when its even harder? When most teenage parents are unfit/not stable . I believe that young teenagers should be on birth control to help resolve this problem.
Abortion Abortion is one of the biggest controversial issues in the U.S. ever since the roe vs. wade decision in 1973. This legalized that a woman could chose to abort her baby in the earlier months of pregnancy without restriction until the baby had reached a certain stage of growth. It passed because mothers were experiencing painful side effects or having bad health from being pregnant. Women were having abortions at first because they thought abortion was the only way out. Those women who are considering abortion because of personal issues should choose adoption instead.
Rather than live in the past and holding on to outdated "traditions", we should be keeping up with the times, especially those of us who plan to go into a helping professional field like teaching or social work. Studies now show that states with abstinence only education have the highest teen pregnancy rates (1) I can completely understand how providing birth control to middle school students would make some unconformable. Nobody wants to think about 12 year old children having sex, least of all their parents. But we can pretend it's not happening to feel a little better about ourselves and keep dealing with teen pregnancy and young kids having unprotected sex, or we can address it like the adults we are, and step in to intervene. When we choose not to discuss sex openly, we reinforce
