Dr. Ronnie's Presentation On Abortion And Its Current Laws

In the news article “Abortion: Every Woman’s Rights” Sharon Smith wrote an article about women’s rights to get abortions prior to the hearing of the Planned Parenthood v. Casey court case, “which threatened to severely restrict women access to abortion” (Smith). Women wanted reproductive control over their lives and felt that they were not equal to men no matter what advances they got at work and how high their level of education was. The women’s right movement wanted women to have the choice of abortion for all women, the rich and the poor. In the US, thirty- seven states did not provide

Every culture and society does not allow or consider abortion as a rightful act, and abortion is a name of destroying human life. Now a days our society faces several types of issues Abortion is one of the complicated issue for both ways health and society that’s why abortion become a very controversial issue that’s become debatable in politics. In addition, these researches will describe the different issues of abortion, such as, legal laws on abortion, restriction of abortions, rate of abortion and consequences of the abortion.

In “A Defense of Abortion” by Judith Jarvis Thompson, Thompson works to argue that even if a human fetus is considered a person, abortion is still often morally permissible. This paper will work to explain Thompson’s positions on the different accounts of the right to life, and to provide an evaluation of them and explain why they are not plausible, specifically regarding three of the analogies on-which she based her entire argument: the violinist, the coat, and the case of Kitty Genovese, as well as to explore a logical counterargument and explain why it’s stance is impermissible.

Although abortion has been a very controversial issue throughout history, I will inform you on the recent law and policy in which has developed over the past forty years. Beginning in the early seventies, the famous Roe v. Wade decision began the controversial segregation of the right to abortion. The decision stated that “women, in consultation with their physician, have the right to have an abortion in the early stages of pregnancy.” (“Induced Abortion in the United States,” July 2014). Roughly twenty years later, and in the early nineties, the Planned Parenthood v. Casey readdressed the policy of abortion and gave the states more power to assist

In the Judith Jarvis Thomson article on “A Defense of Abortion”, there is a lot of arguments that she points out as to why abortion of a child is not entirely wrong. She gives examples and analogies as to what could happen in a case of a woman when she becomes pregnant and is ill, and an abortion is necessary. She gives the readers various points of view on the issue of abortion, and is not seeming to be persuasive to be for or against abortions. It seems as though she is letting the reader understand all angles of the issue and giving the reader a chance to judge for themselves on if abortion is right or wrong considering all factors on what is morally and immorally correct.

In this paper, I will argue that Thomson is right to claim that, even if a fetus is a person, abortion is still permissible, regardless of the fetus’ right to life. I will focus on Thomson’s 3 main analogies – the violinist, the people seeds, and the chocolate – and the arguments against them.

There have been arguments more than decades over abortion, some philosopher says it’s oaky to have abortion; other considers it as murder of an unborn child. However philosopher Judith Jarvis Thomson shares her thoughts through her writing “A Defense of Abortion”. According to her abortion is not morally right thing to do but in certain situations it is permissible. She gave her reader mainly three examples and she wanted to convey her message through it. Three of her main example was – famous violinist thought experiment, people seeds thought experiment, and sharing chocolate theory. She first started with a nice example, where all premises were right therefore conclusion had to be true. She proposed – every fetus is a person, every person

In conclusion, most ethical issues have been associated with abortion as well as maternal and foetal conflicts. The proponents and opponents have always been divided equally in both sides. Some of the points made for and against the acceptance of abortion in society have always revolved around the relationship between the mother and the foetus (Mattingly, 2012). It is important to state that three ethical issues are important in discussing issues relating to abortion. The three include autonomy, nonmaleficence and beneficence. Of all three ethical issues, autonomy of the women has been identified as one of the most important factor that takes precedent over the others. The decision finally lies with the woman (Nocon, 2010). However, if a party

When looking at the ongoing debate of when an embryo becomes a human life with rights, there is major controversy when it comes to abortion and embryonic testing. These are the two largest areas where there is a major debate on when the start of life happens, to make sure that people can make the most ethical decision possible with the lives that are being aborted or being tested. The beginning of a life is an ethical issue because it is a moral dilemma. When researching about when life the most ethical answer is conception. This is also when rights should be given to the newly fertilized fetus.

Abortion is a controversial issue in many countries all the time and there are always two sides of abortion. Pro-life supporters believe that abortion is immoral, so they argue that it should be illegal because an unborn baby is life. However, they do not figure out that woman who is on the inevitable situation such as infection, rape, or extreme poverty would still have the abortion even though the abortion is illegal. Many women die due to unsafe abortion, which is illegal and performed by uneducated people. Therefore, the abortion should be legal to protect the life of ‘alive women’ because women’s life is equal to human’s right. I would like to provide more affirmative bases to support abortion in this paper.

Nafisa L Kabir is a 19 y.o. female who presented on 11/19/2017 with chief complaint of miscarriage. I was asked to meet with Pt by Margaret E Samuels-Kalow, MD. Pt was in bed, sitting up, with hair hanging over her eyes crying. I introduced myself and Pt began crying harder. Pt. Reported her boyfriend had been with her and had left to go to school. Pt reported she "felt foolish" and explained she was 7 weeks pregnant before losing the baby. Pt talked about initially being shocked she was pregnant as she is currently has an IUD. Pt reported initially she was excited and she and her boyfriend talked about getting married and raising the baby together. Pt reported she had some self doubt about raising a baby, and on Saturday had been thinking perhaps she should get an abortion because she was in school. Pt reported just a few hours later she began experiencing bleeding and stated "I think God heard me and took the baby from me". Pt reported she had not shared with anyone she was pregnant with the exception of her boyfriend. Pt reported her boyfriend is supportive and they have talked about how they would share the news of the pregnancy with their families. Pt reported she felt the baby was going to be a boy and they had talked about baby names and reported " the baby was going to be named Liam". Pt reported, "I am so angry with myself for getting excited about the thought of having a baby so early on".

The following day the man not only gave him each location where the girls were taken, his boss and the names of every man involved, the households that purchased one of these kidnapped girls to marry into their family. Sadly, he confessed the location where several girls were buried and the names of the customers who got out of hand playing with the young girls or responsible for giving them an overdose of drugs because they got them pregnant and it was too late for an abortion. Those peoples' names were on the top of the list to kill on sight. My wife rewarded the man, who could no longer sit down, by throwing him back to the mothers so they could cut his throat when they are tired of venting their anger.

Prior to the 1900s, abortion was not regulated in the United States. With the rise of the medical profession and increasing immigrant population, doctors became more interested in the reproductive health care process. The American Medical Association (AMA) began to advocate for the criminalization of abortion, stating the need to protect women from the dangerous chemicals used to induce abortion (Solinger, 2015). However, amongst members of the AMA, it was known that the criminalization of abortion would work to correct declining white birth rates. Rickie Solinger (2015) states:

After the United States Supreme Court case, Roe v. Wade in 1973, women have gained the constitutional right to abort their pregnancy. Since this date states have put into place different policies addressing early and late term abortion. Some of these policies are working to protect women’s health, while others want to accomplish fetal right. (Guttmacher, 2017) Abortion policies remain a controversial topic amongst national, state, and individual levels because they contribute to gender politics, right to choose, and religious beliefs.

The issue of abortion is very ambiguous. It doesn't just have a demographic meaning, but it has both political and social significance, and the most important are has an ethical aspect to it. Despite that this issue is “as old as Earth” it’s still very accurate nowadays and the topic of many debates. This is explained by the fact that the issue touches many levels: moral, socio-political, religious and scientific. There are 1.1 million U.S. abortions each year, this means that nearly 1 out of 4 (22%) of pregnancies end in abortion.
