Abortion Is Not A Free Card Away From Responsibility

Abortion should be illegal in the United States of America. Since abortion was made legal in 1973, almost 57 million babies have been murdered by abortion. At the rate of 2,900 babies aborted a day, or 1,058,500 a year, the death toll is averaging almost double the deaths caused by the “leading cause of death” in the U.S., heart disease. These are 57 million people, who could've grown up to cure cancer, or found a reliable and abundant clean source of energy. Also, women who have had abortions almost always are psychologically affected in some form or another. These affects include, but are not limited to; regret, anger, guilt, shame, sense of loneliness or isolation, anxiety and depression, and suicidal thoughts or feelings/actions. In fact,

Abortion has been one of the most popular and argumentative topics that has still yet to be settled. Ultimately the question we can ask when trying to solve this issue is whether or not pregnant women should have the right to kill an unborn baby. Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy before birth takes place and is a moral wrong. Can we as a society call ourselves human if we allow the deaths of unborn babies to take place? Those who take the side of pro-choice or as also known as pro-abortion often use statements concerning life, humanity, human rights and freedom to support their claims. I believe abortion should be illegal because we as a society must protect the human lives that are in danger whether or not they are in their first

Abortion has taken the lives of more than 50 million babies since 1973 (“About Abortion”). The issue of abortion is one of the most common controversial issues in American politics and culture. In modern society, many women that have an unintended pregnancy and they result to abortion without researching other options. Abortion is not a substitute for birth control and this issue should be taken seriously. The individual woman needs to understand that by agreeing to have an abortion she is agreeing to kill an innocent fetus. Abortion rips the unborn child from his or hers right to life. Society needs to let women see through the eyes of the fetus and find alternative ways to raise the baby. Abortion should be

Abortion is a very serious situation in the world. It is a medical procedure to end a pregnancy. There are many reasons why women abort their babies but none of these reasons are valid. Therefore, mothers should think of other ways instead of termination. These innocent babies are victims in the womb. Abortion needs to stop because it is clearly wrong to kill our children, our faith teaches us otherwise, and we should protect human life.

People make mistakes, it is a part of life. A mistake could be accidentally becoming impregnated, not by choice. Forcing a woman to carry on a pregnancy that she does not want, is cruel and should be considered inhumane. Children should enter the world being loved and wanted. That will not happen if a woman feels resentful towards her baby. An unwanted baby is prone to neglect and child abuse. Babies coming into the world unwanted has a list of consequences. It is possible that the child will start showing behavioral problems, poor social competence, low adaptive functioning, and more. Statistics show that deaths while giving birth is 14 times higher than deaths from an abortion. If abortion was illegal everywhere, the amount of illegal abortions would be skyrocketing. That causes more harm to the mother and the baby. Roe, or Norma McCorvey, is a perfect example of why abortion should be legal. That is why Roe v. Wade is such a landmark case in the United States. Motherhood should be taken extremely serious because we all know that how you raise your children is how they will grow up and will affect the decisions they

Abortion is, and will stay, a ubiquitous topic of discussion. This medical procedure is performed when a woman has reasons to terminate a baby within the first 24 weeks of pregnancy. Currently, abortion is legal in the US, but in other countries such as Ireland, Poland, and Brazil, abortion has many regulations and only allow the procedure if the woman’s life is at risk. There are pro-life individuals and pro-choice ones. As a pro-choice supporter myself, I understand that banning abortion will put millions of babies, women, and families at physical, emotional, and financial risk. I believe abortion should stay legal because they are safe, they protect most women from financial disadvantages, and in oodles of cases, abortion is necessary.

Abortion is the deliberate killing of the weakest and most defenseless among us. A pregnant woman has the right to decide whether her baby should live or die. But what about the unborn baby? Doesn’t it get a say? Doesn’t its life cost anything? According to the first amendment of the constitution, we have the freedom of speech. So why not give the speechless fetus a chance to come into the world? If the reason for an abortion is not having enough money or wanting to live a free life, then there are many organizations that can help children that have no support from their family. In this paper, I will defend the view that having an abortion is morally wrong.

In the United states a child is aborted every 30 seconds. Just in 2017 there have been 997,437 and is going up every 30 seconds (Kell). This is a crazy amount for only one year, people shouldn’t be getting pregnant if they don’t want a baby or aren’t going to give it up for adoption. Getting an abortion is taking an innocent life, some women require psychological help after getting an abortion, we should have adoption over abortion, and if people consider infanticide illegal then why isn’t abortion illegal. These women are hurting themselves along with the growing fetus inside of them. There have also been instances when doctors have tried to provide an abortion and the child ends up living. People shouldn’t be allowed to have abortions, it should be illegal.

Imagine if you were placed in a life or death situation and you had no way to fight for life. This is the circumstance that unborn children encounter when they are forced to experience an abortion, which terminates them and tortures them during their mother’s pregnancy. Abortion is wrong and should be illegal, because it violates the rights of an unborn human being who doesn’t have control over what happens to them. I believe everyone should be against abortion due to my personal opinion as well as genuine facts of the negative effects this procedure has. Abortion is a touchy subject that people feel very strongly about, whether they are “pro life” or “pro choice”.

If a woman agrees to engage in sexual activity and doesn’t properly use contraception, then she would know that pregnancy can occur. Being pregnant means a woman has a new life growing inside of her and I believe that the woman has an ethical obligation to that life. Woman should not be able to deny a child the right to life just because they made a mistake that they want to cover up. Using abortion as a means of birth control is not healthy psychologically or physically and is not a responsible approach to deal with the repercussions of sex. Women who have abortions are at higher risk for depression, anxiety, and other emotional disturbance, they are also at higher risk for pelvic inflammatory disease, and HIV/AIDS. Abortion can also affect a woman’s fertility and make it difficult/ impossible for her to have children later on if she

Abortion is a subject which is continually contested in the worldwide media, stimulating passion and controversy. Abortion still raises fundamental questions about human existence, such as when life begins and what it is that makes us human (United Nations, 2002).

“One woman dies every seven minutes around the world due to an unsafe illegal abortion” (womenscenter.com). Women all over the world have used abortion as an alternative to having the baby in every known society, in any point in history, regardless of its legality. The reason and decision to have an abortion is never easy. Pro-Life advocates may argue that a fetus can feel pain and it is inhumane. In reality, a newly fertilized embryo cannot physically feel pain up until at least 14 weeks. People claim there are other options including adoption. But in reality, we already have enough unwanted children in this world so why bring in thousands of more children as a result of abortions being illegal? And the what about the care for the mother?

“There are nearly 1.2 million abortions performed in the United States each year” (Operation Rescue, 2014). That was 1.2 million innocent lives that were ended before they even had a chance to begin. Abortion has been legal for decades now, and it is time to put a stop to all the murdering of unborn children. This senseless killing of an unborn child needs to be recognized for what it truly is, and that is legalized murder. Abortions should be made illegal in the United States because it is taking the life of an innocent person, there are other options out there and lastly abortions are not only harming the unborn child but also cause harm to the mother.

Babies are dying. No, I am not talking about miscarriages, SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), or RDS (respiratory distress syndrome). I am talking about abortion, something we can stop. An average of 954,000 babies died from abortions in 2014 which is equivalent to about 2,613 abortions a day. I believe abortions should be banned, and the only time it should be allowed is if there is a legitimate reason such as rape, incest, the mother is dying, etc. It shouldn’t be exempt if it’s a teen mother, or the baby is a gender you don’t want, or you're not ready.

Since the legalization of abortion in 1973, over 57 million unborn children have been killed, more than the entire population of Spain! (Guttmacher) I strongly disagree with abortion, no one should be able to kill the baby/babies growing inside of a woman. It takes innocent lives of unborn human beings that are, living, unique babies with a heartbeat! There are many things that can go wrong when having or thinking about having an abortion, such as it is damaging to relationships and families, there are many harsh ways to abort a baby, which can cause some problems also, and it could cause emotional damage to one.
