Abortion

Imagine if an important woman in your life like a sister, daughter, or best friend came to you admitting that she was raped and got pregnant from it. You can see the pain and trauma in her eyes. You know that it can potentially disrupt her family relationships, her education, her body, her life. Will you advise her to abort the fetus or not?

Today, I will be speaking about why abortion should be legal in all countries. Even if you think that abortion is not a likely option for you, you are going to know someone that has to go through this choice and they are going to need your advice so it’s good to just be informed on the issue.

5% of rape victims occur unwanted pregnancies. They don’t do this just because they want to murder the child, but because they don’t want to be reminded by the child that they were raped, which affects their psychological health. According to the hierarchy of needs, psychological health is the most important and hence I believe that abortion should be made an option.

Women or couples will resort to back-alley operations, which are very dangerous for both fetus and mother. According to the World Health Organisation, there were 19 million unsafe abortions in 2000. In 2004 there were about 60000 maternal deaths worldwide caused by complications from unsafe abortions. Abortions should be legal so that the women can have safe abortions that will not pose a threat to their health.

In this case, when a fetus grows into a child, it is worse than abortion since the child will grow in a non conducive environment without the love and stability that a child

    Upon conception an individual is created, this individual has the right to life and should be protected. Dr. Maureen Condic tells us that the most primitive responses to pain in the spinal cord are developed by eight weeks gestation and that it is a universal agreement that pain is detected by the fetus in the first trimester. Dr. Bernard Nathanson stated that when an abortion is performed on a 12 week old fetus, “we see (on an ultrasound machine) the child’s mouth open in a silent scream.” It is immoral to kill a child for convenience. People are having sex and should know that even with using a form of contraceptive there will be a risk of pregnancy.

    Why Abortion Should Be Illegal Abortion has been a popular debate in the United States, especially after the Supreme Court ruling in 1973 stating a woman has the right to an abortion. In my opinion, abortion is wrong and very unethical. There are some specific instances where abortion may be acceptable, but for the most part, abortion is an evil act.

    The fetus hasn’t begun living outside of the womb, and while it may have potential for some sort of success, that can be true about many things.
