Abortion: New Study

First, one of the many reasons abortion should be illegal in the United States is for the physical and emotional effects it has on women. One example, is the increased risk effect it can have on a later pregnancy. According to Dr. Roger Harms, “However, some research suggests a possible link between abortion and an increased risk of: Vaginal bleeding during early pregnancy, Preterm birth, Low birth weight, Placental problems, such as retained placenta” (Harms). Many people plan on having kids at some point in their lives, but by having an abortion, it could potentially harm future pregnancies. In addition, the mental side effects abortion can have on women is terribly underrated. The physiological effect of killing a baby can last any number of months and even a lifetime. The term Post

Abortion is killing innocent children and affecting the lives of many women across the United States. These actions speak words loudly saying, I don't want the child so I’m taking the easy way out and killing the baby. Abortion is just another excuse to not take responsibility for the actions you took. The United States should make abortion illegal. Abortion is wrong because there are many different options other than killing the baby, it is unsafe for the woman, and women that have had abortions live with that fact every day physically and emotionally.

As well all know the abortion rate is increasing dramatically because everyone is becoming impregnated and having abortions for several reasons. In my opinion, I feel as though if you don’t want children then you should practice safe sex by using contraptions. Abortions should be illegal for a numerous amount of reasons which are: It’s consider murder, it’s against religion, it’s unhealthy for the body, and cause mental illness.

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

Abortion should be legal, because there are too many things that go wrong. A women could be raped and need to get one because she doesn’t want to look at the child and doesn’t want to feel it grow, freedom of choosing what to do and how government involvement in personal decisions such as this could lead to potentially having the government deem how many children you can have or even how many pregnancies you are allowed, medical reasons for abortion, and the ability of a woman to have control of her body is critical to civil rights.

One reason abortion should remain legal is because of rape. Rape is the most targeted crime amongst women. Rape is defined as sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration against someone without their consent. National rape related pregnancy rate is at

Abortion should be illegal is because the reasons why people are aborting. The opposing side may say there is many reasons why it is ok to abort your child, for example if you aren’t ready to have a baby. Even if they think they are “ready” to have an abortion, most of the time they are not. Only 25%

Doi:10.1002/nur.2165. This is a research study conducted by three professors in the United States of America about the ethical issue-Abortion and how it influences in nursing care. It also explains the approach of nurses towards ethically challenging work- abortion in different departments.

Abortion should be illegal because a choice such as this is immoral. I believe abortion to be considered immoral because life begins at conception, and choosing to abort a child is the same as murder. Most abortions are performed within the first six months of pregnancy . Mothers should be aware that at just 18 days "the fetal heart is already pumping blood through a closed circulatory system. At 40 days the fetal brain begins to function . During the eighth week all his body systems are present and by the eleventh all systems are fully functional." ( Studyworld.com ) Any person who believes that the fetus is simply a mass of flesh, is extremely wrong. In fact , the body of an unborn baby is even more complex than ours due to additional parts they have such as the placenta and amniotic sac . All working systems in the body of the fetus are formed in the cell of origin, not the mother .

How would you feel, if I told you that your mother wanted to have an abortion when you were a fetus just because she didn’t want to raise you, didn’t have the time for you, or the money. Or didn’t want the responsibility that came with having a child. What if I told you that half of the women that get pregnant in the U.S. today have abortions, and their main reason is most likely because it might interfere with their work, education, or relationships. Which is selfish. If you think about it, they think that the the baby inside them means nothing. They don’t deserve to live a happy life or a life at all. Also they think it’s their body, but it’s not, it’s the baby's body too. This controversial topic has been an a highly debated argument for many years, whether it’s ethical to kill your unborn child or or not! Also the fact that the rate is growing tremendously. Abortions first started in the 1820s. At that time, women knew that they were and are killing their fetus or embryo. Some women are not ready to become parents to take the responsibility. Personally, I think that having an abortion is morally wrong because you are killing an unborn fetus or embryo, while it is barely starting to develop.

One could say that an abortion should be legal because the developing fetus is part of the female and she should be able to do with her body what she likes, but this is not so. The fetus is not part of her

Abortion should be illegal because life begins at conception; scientific and medical discoveries over the past three decades have verified and solidified this age-old truth. Dr. Jerome LeJeune, Professor of Genetics at the University of Descartes, Paris, discoverer of the chromosome pattern of Down

Second, abortion is not only harmful to the baby but also the women themselves as well. Abortion can cause women not being able to get pregnant again in the future or cause many disease, sickness and even death. Abortion is also a reason of increasing number of people suicide. According to a study of women in Finland, woman who had abortions were 3.7-6.5 times more likely to commit suicide within a year after that.

There are over five hundred thousand abortions per year in America alone. To this day, abortion is still a widely debated topic. Whether you are pro-life, the believe that abortion is murder or pro-choice, the belief that women should be the ones deciding if the child they are carrying is to be aborted, you have an opinion on the topic. The points that pro-life activists make are far stronger than those of the pro-choice activists. Due to the inhumane acts that abortion does to unborn children, such as devaluing them, abortion should be made illegal.

The first reason that abortion should not be legal is pregnancy is preventable. There are many other options other than the decision to abort. To murder a child just because you don’t want it, or didn’t plan it, is wrong. Some women cause their self pain by not thinking this decision through, and sometimes can’t mentally accept the fact afterwards and suffer depression. How would you feel if your mother had decided to abort you? How would you feel if you were obviously not important enough to be granted the right to live? How would you feel afterwards knowing that you murdered one of the biggest blessings that God could ever give you? I believe abortions are morally wrong and should be banned.
