Abortion Is Wrong

There are situations that even the actual birth of the baby will cause a serious problem to the mother. If we think about the case of a young teenage girl who get pregnant early, or the situation of a middle school girl who was rape, we would see it's very dangerous to force her to keep the baby. There could be serious repercussions if she does not get the nutrition she needs during her pregnancy or correct pre-natal care. Death rate during birth and chances for a premature or otherwise unhealthy baby is also dramatically higher among young mothers. We have no right to ask her to take a great danger just to give birth to unwanted child. We should respect her decision whether or not she will keep the

“I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born” - - Ronald Reagan

Ever since the case of Roe v. Wade in 1973, abortion has been one of the most contentious issues in our society. In some cases people think abortion is murder, in others, it’s reasonable for some cases. Then there are people who use it just to take advantage of it. The legal stance of abortion is a hot topic in today’s society.

I believe that elective abortion is wrong and should be declared illegal. Abortion should be a last resort, and used only if the life of the mother or baby is at risk. Elective abortion is the interruption of a pregnancy before the twentieth week of gestation. This type of abortion is done at the request of the woman for reasons other than maternal health of fetal disease. The debate over abortion is broken down into different sides: pro-life and pro-choice. Roughly fifty-one percent of people in the United States of America are pro-choice, or believe that women should have unrestricted access to abortion. The other forty-nine percent of people are pro-life, or are against all forms of abortion with no exceptions. There is, however, a select group of pro-life activist who have slightly different views. Some believe that only elective abortion should be made illegal, and exceptions can be made for those who face life-threatening situations during the pregnancy. Pro-choice activist argue that women should have the right to choose whether or not to give birth to the child. Moreover, those activists will point out that a child should not come into the world unwanted. Pro-life activist will argue that abortion eliminates the potential societal contributions of that future human being. Another point made by pro-life activist is that abortion should not be used as a form of contraception. The debate over the legality of abortion has led to the government stepping in. In 1973, a

I believe that abortion is wrong and it’s a social problem. I think that it is wrong to have an abortion because life begins at conception. Abortion is no different to murder as it is the act of taking a human life. As in California penal code 187 says murder is an unlawful killing of a human being, or a fetus with malice. I think the above definition is an easier and less aggressive way to say that abortion is the murdering of a human being. No civilized society should permit any person to intentionally hurt or take the life of another human without any type of punishment, and abortion should not be different.

Abortion is the act of killing a defenseless human. Pregnancy has been regarded as a problem because teens and non teens, especially unmarried, are seen as incapable of providing children with their needs in today’s world, because of this, abortion is chosen. Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus.

In America, abortions are legal. Sacrificing an unborn life in this world should be illegal. They cannot speak for themselves and don’t have a choice to live or die. Abortion should be illegal.

If abortion is wrong like killing us, I think this is a public moral issue. In today society, if you kill a person and you will be getting punishment, like compensation, and go to jail. I think abortion can be applied in the same way as to kill a person. If this idea carries out, the practice is forbidden and it will be attached to the law. Therefore, abortion cases will be less likely occur.

A topic that has played a big part in the legalization of abortion is if it would be considered to be murder. First we need to understand what is murder. As defined by the dictionary murder is the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another (Webster Dictionary) Whereas abortion can be defined as the deliberate termination of a pregnancy by the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus (Webster Dictionary). The definition of murder mentions the words 'unlawful ' and 'human being ' for that they do not apply to the definition of abortion. The term “human incubator” was used to describe the women pregnant with an unwanted child (debate.org). One of the debaters said “Abortion does not equate to killing a living breathing existing human being. The woman has a life, dreams, family, history, possibly a job. The fetus has nothing but what it is given (debate.org).” A fetus is not yet a human being. It is more like a seed or sprout of a human being. It is ‘alive,’ but that is also

The deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy...This is what abortion means or in other words;taking a baby’s life when still in the womb. This is what I call murder and no one can transform the thoughts i have on this kind of matter. What I’m writing, talking, and will be explaing about is Abortion. The genocide on baby’s who have their life taken away when they could’ve have potential in life but didn’t have a choice when the mother decided to squash and kill her unborn. Laws ban abortion in countless states and multiple regions of the world but some still debate that Abortion is right in numerous ways and citizens still have their own right to take their unborn’s life away because

There are two great days in a person’s life, the day we are born, and the day we discover why (William Barclay). Imagine having those days being taken without even having a chance to experience them because you weren’t considered human yet. There’s an endless deliberation on abortion and whether it’s acceptable. Some feel it is up to the parent or parents and others feel it’s just outright murder no matter what. I personally am pro-choice because you never know how the child was conceived.

Abortion is a risky topic that has been argued about for a long time and is still debated over today. The argument if abortion should be legal or if it is morally right should be discussed because it is important to inform the public, especially women that they should have the right to decide on what to do with their bodies. It is concerning to perceive that there is a whole industry making money off women who could have been through a traumatic event such as an unwanted pregnancy from rape. These women still must put their bodies through this procedure to free themselves from something that could potentially ruin their lives or the unborn child’s life. The pro-life comes at the other side with a harsher approach and believe that these women

A long on-going subject that has been greatly debated in our society is abortion. Many people argue that because the baby in the mother’s womb is not alive, aborting him or her is not considered a murder. However, others say that as the baby’s heart and brain are the first things to develop, the baby is technically alive and killing it would be a murder. As soon as the baby has a heartbeat, it has life. Abortion has many characteristics of a murder, including the killing of one human being by another, it’s unethical, and it is done without the consent of the person.

Abortion is defined as “The removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to end the pregnancy” (dictionary.com). However, if only the debate over the abortion issue was as easy as the definition listed above. However, similar to most things in life, a statement or opinion is never right nor wrong, but simply left open for clarification. Those who are against abortion believe that abortion is the murder of innocent human beings who aren’t given a chance at life and the ability to function as a normal individual. However, those who are for abortion believe that it is a women’s right to choose what she does to not only her baby but

Abortions have been performed ubiquitously for thousands of years predating the 1973 Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade when the United States made it possible for women to get abortions legally from properly trained medical practitioners. In the 1880s, abortion was a risky process due to inaccessibility to hospitals and consequently, was often performed in life-threatening, unhygienic conditions. “Prohibition of legal abortion from the 1880s until 1973 came under the…Comstock laws that prohibited the dissemination of birth control information and services” (National Abortion Federation 1). However, criminalizing abortion did not reduce the multitude of women seeking to terminate their pregnancies. It is estimated that “In the years before Roe v. Wade … [the number of] illegal abortions ranged as high as 1.2 million per year” (Tietze C, Henshaw, Induced Abortion: A World Review). For this reason, many women in the United States faced higher medical risks and psychological problems after attempting to self-induce their abortions in unsanitary environments.
