Abortion Of Pro-Choice In UnwindBy Surgaal Neal Shusterman

Pro-choice describes political and ethical views that a woman should have the control over her fertility and the choice to continue or terminate her pregnancy. Pro-choice activists argue that an embryo has no rights as it is only a potential and not an actual person and its rights should not override those of the mother’s until after it is born. The right to choose to have an abortion is personal and essential to women’s lives and without this right, women cannot exercise their rights and liberties guaranteed to them by the Constitution. Without the right to choose an abortion the 14th amendment’s guarantee of liberty has little meaning for women. Another point made could include that a man can withdraw from a relationship when he finds out that his spouse is pregnant, it is only fair that women be given the same choice.

Pro-choice believers believe that women have the right to do what they would like. Social analysis has been conducted and has shown that women want a safe, legal, and

own decisions, and so it is a woman's right to make the choices that affect

Pro-choice believers support the right to privacy and the idea women should have the choice to do what she pleases with her own body. For example; a woman is raped by a man and becomes pregnant with his child. She decides she doesn’t want to keep the baby; she has an abortion because mental affect her if she has to look at the baby of

To have a complete picture of this debate, arguments from both sides must be heard and understood. One of the main tenets of the pro-choice movement is how reproductive choice empowers women and giving them control over their own bodies. To decide if or when they remain pregnant is extremely important to women from all walks of life, whether the circumstances are rape or incest, or whether they simply are not prepared to take care of a child at that time in their lives. Pro-choice advocates point out the possible negative effects of a mother bringing to term a child will constantly remind them of their attack, or serve as a punishment to the mother, all of which can be avoided when women are allowed to choose the right time for them. The US Supreme Court has declared abortion to be a "fundamental right" guaranteed by the US Constitution. The ruling in Roe v Wade was clear; women should have access to abortions if they want them. It has been proven that there is an association between unsafe abortions and restrictive abortion laws. The article states “The median rate of unsafe abortions in the 82 countries with the most restrictive abortion laws is up to 23 of 1000 women”, the median rate in nations that allow abortion is 2 of 1000. It goes on to say that “Abortion-related deaths are more frequent in countries with more restrictive abortion laws (34 deaths per 100,000 childbirths)”

The choice of her keeping the child would result in her getting kicked out of her home, she’d be finically unable to support the baby, and she would lose her education. With abortion she would not have to deal with these issues, though she would have to deal with the emotional aspect of deciding to terminate the pregnancy. Pro-choice supports the idea she would learn from her mistake and that ultimately it was her choice to do what she wished with her body.

The controversy surrounding abortion has been long debated since the Roe v Wade case (1973) as pro-life advocates and pro-choice advocates go neck to neck on whether the process should be banned or remain legal. According to APA (American Psychological Association), abortion is the “medical or surgical termination of a pregnancy and is one of the oldest, most common and most controversial medical procedures”. To be Pro-Life means to be against the termination of a fetus; one who is not in favor of the practice. Pro-life advocates believe a woman should continue the pregnancy and deliver the baby no matter the circumstance. Pro-choice represents those who believe the woman deserves a choice to carry the baby or have an abortion. Although the 1973 Roe vs Wade case legalized abortion, abortion is still currently a much heated debate in America as the surgical procedure is possibly on the verge of becoming illegalized. However, abortion should definitely remain legal for various reasons such as individual freedom, victim protection, life opportunities, failed contraception, and it is not fair for the government to make such crucial decisions for a woman’s life.

Pro-choice women believe in their rights from the Constitution to help defend them, however. The Constitution protects the women's privacy. The First Amendment, Fourth Amendment, and Ninth Amendment all give broad, unmentioned privacy on abortions. Since unmentioned, the women have protection and can control their own bodies (Chinn, …). They give an extension to privacy in marriage and procreation/contraception. Pregnancy may also have a toll on some women. Maternity may cause a poor life for the women in many ways. Mental and physical health may be damaged with having to care for a baby. Exhaustion can affect mental or physical health and take away the control women feel. Women need to be able to care for themselves and care for the tolls that pregnancy may cause. Other women have trouble financially supporting a lifestyle with a baby involved. They do not want to bring a baby into the world suffering because women cannot afford one. The states should not force a baby when women cannot care for it financially. Emotional health is also fragile when pregnant and feeling burdened with a baby. Babies require much care and some women cannot afford to give it. Some women have trouble caring for themselves and fell they shouldn’t care for a baby if they are not ready. These women feel that just because they’re having sex does not mean they are allowing pregnancy. Many couples precautions to prevent pregnancy, like condoms or

The novel, Unwind by Neal Shusterman, is a dystopian novel set in a world where . Sixteen year-old Connor Lassiter gets his life completely turned around when he discovers that his parents have signed a contract that states that he can be ‘unwound’. Being unwound in this futuristic world, is a form of abortion for teenagers aged thirteen to eighteen, where their body parts are harvested until someone needs them, yet still stay alive. Connor runs away from home and manages to disappear for one day until he is tracked down by the police and his father on a busy highway. Full of adrenaline and fear, Connor grabs the nearest person to him to use as a hostage and as a shield against the onslaught of sedatives the police are firing, Levi

People that are pro-choice believe that women should have their own choice as to if they want to have an abortion. An example is if a woman gets raped, and becomes pregnant with the rapist’s childs. So she wants to abort the baby because she doesn’t want deal with the pain of raising her rapist’s child. Now, pro-lifers would call the woman a murderer. While pro-choicers would be on the woman’s side. And what if when a woman gets an abortion, she gets stalked by pro-lifers, calling her a murderer because she aborted her baby?

The definition of abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. Inasmuch as it is true, in our society abortion is an extremely controversial subject, however, it is also safe to say that it is a very opinionated matter between those who do and do not believe in it. Abortion has been legal in the United States since the case of Roe v. Wade in the winter of 1973 labeling it as a “fundamental right”, it has since been a moral issue within our society. The decision to terminate ones own pregnancy is in their own hands and the effects of termination mentally and physically are their own to contract with.

The United States has been divided now over the issue of abortion for thirty-three years since the Supreme Court’s ruling in Roe v. Wade in 1973. As of today, over 45 million legal abortions have been performed in the United States. Pro-choice advocates hold these 45 million abortions as being 45 million times women have exercised their right to choose to get pregnant and to choose to control their own bodies. To pro-life, or anti-abortion, advocates these 45 million abortions constitute 45 million murders, a genocide of human life in the United States propagated by the court’s ruling in Roe v. Wade. The debate over abortion in the United States is thus a debate of two extremes. One side argues from the personal liberty of the mother. The

In today’s society vs. Unwinds society, we are totally against abortion as the civilization in unwind isn’t. In the book “Unwind”, to most, unwinding became the substitute for abortion where instead of the abortion of an unborn child, the parents may choose to plan to abort in this case “unwind” their child at any age from 13-17. There is a complete difference between today’s culture on how we think about abortion and Unwinds society. Unwinding is just a bad sign of parenting. They just gave up on their child. Which something is in today’s society that everyone is totally against. In the United States of America, they hold up laws today that are making abortion stricter and stricter to women. In Unwind, they allowed women to have abortions and to even have “stork” their children. A stork is a person when an unwanted baby us left on the doorstep of a home where the family is then legally obligated to raise the child as their own. Which is something that will never happen in today’s world. It is

The choice of her keeping the child would result in her getting kicked out of her home, she’d be finically unable to support the baby, and she would lose her education. With abortion she would not have to deal with these issues, though she would have to deal with the emotional aspect of deciding to terminate the fetus. Pro-choice supports the idea she would learn from her mistake and that ultimately it was her choice to do what she wished with her body. The results of the experience for this girl would be social maturity and evolution, rather than a state of repression.

People who are pro-choice support the advocating and legalizing of abortion. Those who are pro-choice believe that the woman should have the choice in whether or not their child should live. I understand in some cases like rape the woman might want to abort the child and in some peoples eyes they would have all the right in the world to. In the case of rape the woman might not know she is
