They believed that abortions were okay even though they knew they were being put in situations in which there was a possibility of them having multiple fetuses. The way the parents in the stories dealt with their conflict were by the style of problem solving. The parents felt by eliminating the baby, they would be eliminating any future problems. The topic of abortions is very controversial, some people believe they are acceptable while others think it is purely evil and wrong. I am on the fence about abortions.
Therefore, abortion would not be a defiance against God. Another main point of the argument is over the woman's personal rights, versus the rights of the unborn child. Pro-choice activists maintain that regardless of the individual circumstances, women should have the right to chose whether or not to abort. The pregnancy and labor will affect only the woman's body, therefore it should be the woman's decision. Pro-life supporters, on the other hand, believe that the unborn child has the right to life, and that abortion unlawfully takes away that right.
They are concerned that women are becoming pregnant and simply saying, “O well, I’ll just have another abortion.” That is not the case. Women have the right to have an abortion because they will take time to make the right decision. They will make their decision in conjunction with their doctor, their family, and their clergy. That is the position many women are in, and being in that position they are qualified to decide to have, or not have an abortion. We should try to make it less likely for a woman to find themselves making the choice of whether or not to have an abortion.
If a woman wants to control her family size, there are not only oral contraceptives, but condoms as well. By combining the two, you are increasing your chance of not getting pregnant. It is a woman’s right to be sexually active if she chooses to, however, responsibility comes with that. If a woman does not want to get pregnant, then she should prevent it with every effort, rather than just turn to abortion to fix her irresponsibility. Next they will argue that you have a right to control your family size, but in doing so by abortion.
Those people who are not in favor of abortion has the choice to not abort a baby and to those who has different religious and moral beliefs, like we all do, should have the right to stand what they think is right and moral and should not have to live on the belief system of other people. If a woman feels and knows that her pregnancy is harmful for her and for the baby’s physical and mental health, and if she knows that the child will grow up in poor environment, she should have the choice to do what she thinks is right, to do what she wants, and to decide for herself. Abortion is something that needs to be decided based on a person’s own beliefs and no one has the right to decide this for someone else. Do some people know what it is like to be a young, goal oriented woman, having an entire great future, and then she is suddenly facing difficult decision of choosing her great future or having an unwanted child? You
If a woman has to travel to another country to have a legal abortion, she will do so, and she will have to pay more money. She will now not only have to pay for the abortion itself, but also the traveling cost. Not all people can afford these costs. So by keeping abortion legal and clinics open more women will have the chance to exercise their right and have their desired abortion. If a working woman or student suddenly has to leave the country to have an abortion, this means she will have to think of excuses and lies for an explanation.
In fact if we force this woman to have the surgery it could compromise the sanctity of a woman’s body. This would bring up the whole debate of abortion. Having the fetus’s rights just as important if not more than the mother’s, could say that if you have an abortion or miscarriage that you could be charged with a criminal offence. In the interest of fairness and justice, she should not be forced to have the
Adoption is an excellent choice for women who choose to carry their pregnancy full term. Women have the right to choose whether or not they want to go through with pregnancy. Relying on abortion as a form of birth control is not right but how can we tell women how to use their rights? In many cases such as rape or in women who cannot healthily carry a pregnancy abortion is a healthier alternative. In rape cases women who decide to go through the pregnancy suffer severe psychological and emotional disturbances towards themselves and the child.
We all know that one of the few things that we all seem to agree on is that we have to get rid of the abortion law and make sure that any woman that wants an abortion get one no matter the trauma or distress. Undoubtedly we all agree on it, but fail to realize what the law really means, or we may understand it but fail to get advanced with the law and research it. Even though abortion is looked at as “ a right, a form of justice, a woman’s right to choose abortion,”(Pro & Cons of Abortion) we still fail to realize the after affects of abortion. “In our disgust with the extreme oppression women experience under the present abortion laws, many of us are understandably tempted to accept insulting token changes that we would angrily shout down if they were offered to us in any other field of struggle for woman’s liberation.”(www.google.com / pro/cons of abortion) When we see our demands having any effect at all we are then tempted to convince ourselves that everything that sound good right then may not turn out good for women in the long run. And a lot of us are so fed up with the system that we do not even bother to find out what it is doing so we can fight it and demand what we want.
Pregnant women, who prefer abortion, on her opinion, make a choice of the same kind. Williams, however, claims that life starts at conception, and such terms as "the first trimester" or "second trimester" cannot help to define life. On the other hand, she claims that abortion should be applied, if it is necessary as abortion sometimes can save lives. Although the author admits that such a life might be worth any sacrifice, the right to decide whether such sacrifice should be done belongs exclusively to the mother. The presented article demonstrates rather effective use of ethos, logos and pathos.
