Abortion: An Issue that Should Be Revised in the United States

The issue of Abortions has been a controversy for years now. There are two main groups for this problem, Pro-Life, and Pro-Choice. Pro-Life supports the human rights of life should be embraced, by religion and ethics. Pro-choice is when someone wants to make this choice without no remorse of human life, but because someone wants no part of it raising one.

There are always a number of heated debates within the United States. These debates are always a hot topic and very controversial issues. Due to how controversial they are, is why they become such largely debated topics with many people having very different views on the specific topic. For example, there is a Democratic and Republican party in the United States; people either stick with one side or the other due to their beliefs and sometimes can be neutral or on the other party’s side for certain topics. Abortion is a very controversial topic as it always has been all around the country but more specifically in the United States. There are two sides to the debate: those who believe abortion should be legal and their organization is

Women should not be able to make decisions about how to live their lives. Clearly, by the looks of the statistics, with approximately 42 million abortions a year, women are foolish. Women should not have the option of deciding when or whether to have children. They do this by making choices regarding when to have sexual intercourse and what contraceptive methods to use. The government should have all the power to make these decisions. Abortion reflects a women's value, her family, and her career.

Abortion has been a complex social issue in the United States ever since restrictive abortion laws began to appear in the 1820s. By 1965, abortions had been outlawed in the U.S., although they continued illegally; about one million abortions per year were estimated to have occurred in the 1960s. (Krannich 366) Ultimately, in the 1973 Supreme Court case of Roe v. Wade, it was ruled that women had the right to privacy and could make an individual choice on whether or not to have an abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy. (Yishai 213)

When discussing the idea of what role the government should play in the topic of abortion, I have a very strong viewpoint and perspective. I am a very pro-life Christian, so with that being said I strongly believe that abortions should be illegal. An abortion is defined as terminating or ending a pregnancy. To me, that is taking away one’s life, or as most call it, murder. Of course with that being said, there is always going to be the argument that it is not a life yet. Life is started at the moment of conception. Therefore by terminating a pregnancy one is ending a life. I believe a viable government policy would be to make abortions illegal, just as murder is. In a very well known U.S. Supreme Court case, Roe vs. Wade, abortions were made

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.

The issue of abortion is notoriously controversial. Since the Supreme Court’s 1992 ruling in Casey v. Planned Parenthood, states have enacted different restrictions on the procedure. These restrictions vary from state to state. Nineteen states currently have laws prohibiting partial-birth abortion, and forty-one states strictly prohibit abortions except in cases of life-endangerment. One particularly incendiary area of abortion law is that of public funding. However, as of this year there are only seventeen states that cover abortion procedures through public funding. In this paper we will discuss federal abortion legislation, while describing the laws and political ideologies of the following states: Texas, California, New

Abortion in United States of America is still one of the controversial issues and it is difficult to address even through the presidential campaign. Abortion was allowed almost in thirty states and legal only in special circumstances like pregnancies resulting from rape or incest in twenty states. Due to restriction laws unsafe abortion which is preventable, it still one of important causes of maternal morbidity and mortality.

And to further develop upon this point, it is statistically proven that many unwanted babies do not have great lives. Obviously if a parent wants to get rid of the child, the parent is not going to be loving and nurturing towards the child. This leads to a slew of new children, oftentimes who are abused, without proper households to be raised in, which consequently has a wide impact across society. It has been statistically proven that most criminals come from homes that are destructive/ non-existent. Also, take a look at the increasing number of foster homes and orphanages that are being built in order to accommodate the growing number of children that cannot or will not be cared for. There are approximately over 500,000 children residing in foster care in the U.S. alone; these children lack the support and care that a regular family would provide. If abortions were to become illegal, the number of homeless children would exponentially increase from the already staggering number of children.

This paper will explore the opinions of older and younger American adults regarding abortion. Abortion has long been a topic of strong debate and gray areas. There are many laws put into place stipulating aspects of the legality of abortion. It is often assumed that those of the younger generation identify as pro-choice, meaning they agree with the legality of abortion. On the other end of the spectrum, it is speculated that older adults lean more toward being pro-life, meaning they do not agree with the legality of abortion. I predict that older adults (40 years of age and older) will identify as pro-life more than younger adults (18-25). I will analyze previous research that has been done, as well as interpret surveys conducted by myself.

Abortion has always been a controversial topic in the United States for decades. Abortion is like taking the life of someone without their permission so it is technically “murder”. There is no such thing as an unwanted child, millions of families in the United States are always willing to adopt. On the other hand, there are circumstances where a woman can barely care and sustain herself so chances are that she will not be able to take care of her child. Or when a rape occurs, having an abortion is not as bad as when a woman has sex without protection and knows she has the chance to get pregnant.

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.

       Nineteen years ago, a twenty one year old young woman sat in the waiting room of an abortion clinic. She was about to make one of the most immense decisions of her life. It was a decision that she had thought about, constantly prayed about and practically obsessed over making for weeks. However, she had finally concluded that she was simply too young and too unstable to bring a child into this world. There were so many uncertainties, she didn 't even know what she was going to do with the rest of her life. Her train of thought was abruptly interrupted as the receptionist called her name. She stood up, but suddenly her knees began to buckle beneath her, her palms got

What is abortion? According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “Abortion: the premature expulsion of a [foetus] from the womb; an operation to cause this.” Abortion has been a controversial topic for many years. Some people favor adoption and some are against it. “In 2008 an estimated 1.21 million abortions were performed in the Unites States.”(Jones, and Kooistra). Many opinions collaborate in abortions rights or abortion legislation. “In 2008, 84,610 women obtained abortions in Texas, producing a rate of 16.5 abortions per 1,000 women of reproductive age. Some of these women were from other states, and some Texas residents had abortions in other states, so this rate may not reflect the abortion rate of state residents. The rate decreased

Abortion is a highly sensitive and controversial subject within the United States that has been an issue of changing opinion for over 200 years. This right has already been resolved to be provided by the Constitution by the Supreme Court. A ban on abortion can possibly violate the separation of church and state, with the reason that those who wish to ban it, are often religious in nature. I strongly believe that the federal government should not ban abortion or have the option to decide what a woman can or cannot do with her own body.
