Abortion Report

Pro-life: may permit abortion if the fetus is confirmed dead within the mother’s womb. This view does not advocate abortion even at the risk of the mother’s health, they believe advancements in medical technology and psychology can save the mother life and the case where the mother’s life cannot be saved, she may have to be

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.

The other component of this pro-life policy is the idea that all humans deserve a chance at life, and that the process by which women became pregnant and the special needs of a

The topic I have chosen is Abortion Surveillance. The purpose of this report was to focus on women throughout the United States who have had legal abortion. According to the article and reported by the CDC a total of 664,435 abortions were documented in 2013. The data was reported from health organizations throughout 50 states, the District of Columbia, and New York City. The main population that was focused on all races, ethnicities, and economic standings of women between the ages of 15-44 years old. Which means during the 2013 the ratio of 12.5 abortions per 1,000 women or 200 abortions per 1,000 live births accrued. Positive note, the abortion rate did go done 5% from 2012 to 2013. The source of data for this article, which can be found on table 4-1 is Abortion Surveillance, Center of Disease Control and Prevention, Alan Guttmaker Institution, and Planned Parent Hood Federation of America.

Abortions for rape or incest victims is another controversial topic. Babies born of these acts are not intended at all, as the sexual act was forced and no contraception or precaution could be taken. Killing the babies from these actions is penalizing them for something they had no choice in the matter of.

I visited a Planned Parenthood Agency located in Dallas. The services that they provide are: birth control including emergency contraception, breast cancer screening, referrals Pap tests including cervical cancer screening, urinary tract infection treatment, HIV testing & counseling, pregnancy testing & pregnancy options information, men’s sexual health services including vasectomy, HPV vaccine & testing information about abortion, pelvic exams and STD testing & treatment.

The topic that I found to be the most interesting idea in the course is the subject on Abortion. I use to thought that if a woman is pregnant it would be wrong for her to go through with an Abortion because of my religious believe. I thought that if individual put their self in a situation where they end up getting pregnant the individual should take their responsibility and take care of the baby. For the reason that the baby is innocent and did not do anything to be hurt or to have their future taken from them. But after going over that topic for an assignment in the class I came to the understanding that sometimes it would be right for an individual to go through with an Abortion even though the individual would rather keeping or giving their

My two topics are abortion and gay marriages. I chose two topic’s because I think they are very important topics to talk about and that everyone should know about. What is abortion and why does it matter, here is why I think it matters.

Given the nature of the discussion, legalized abortion is a hotly contested idea which many media

Per Reporter: The grandmother (unknown) accompanied Jordan to the clinic 9/20/17 due to a knot being on the right side of his head. Valencia noticed the knot either the night of 9/19/17 or the morning of 9/20/17. There were swelling around the knot and felt like a boney defect (felt like there was a hole), which prompted Dr. Wells to send the family to Baptist Oxford for CT & skull fracture. It is unknown of what caused the knot. Jordan was acting normal. According to the radiologist (unknown), evaluation for abuse was suggested. Dr. Wells spoke with Valencia; she denies Jordan falling. Dr. Wells informed Valencia to take Jordan to the ER for further evaluation before the family returned home. Dr. Wells was unaware of the CT results during

Main-Point #1: Primarily, I am going to discuss exactly what the problem is with abortion. After so much research on my topic, the

I have found out about the Landmark program and the event from my instructor. The only reason why I decided to attend the completion event of the program was to earn extra credit points for my English 1A class and boost my grade. I have never had a chance to attend or participate in such sort of events before. Moreover, I had no idea what the forum and the event are about. Therefore, it was a thought-provoking experience to observe the event and people attending.

Abortion has been one of the hottest topics concerning women’s health care and reproductive rights. Tune into any presidential debate and you’ll notice candidates spending as much time discussing the topic as immigration, foreign policy, climate change, and gun control. There are a lot of misconceptions about the pro-choice movement but it can be explained in very simple terms. Being pro-choice does not mean pro-abortion, it simply means accepting that women have the choice to choose what they do with their bodies, not the government or anyone else. I believe strongly in this issue and believe that we should look at our past and not go back to a time where women did not have the same rights as men over their bodies. We are trying to become equal, not return to an era of submission. No man or government should have the power to control a women’s body; every person has a right to his/her own body. Abortion should be kept an easy, accessible, safe, and legal option for all women regardless of beliefs. We should be taking strides forward toward equality, not steps back. In the mid-twentieth century, second wave feminists saw major struggles of women and sought to radically improve and change the security of women and reproductive rights. We have fought hard for many of the rights we have today, but everyday we are challenged by those who want to oppose and erase our efforts.

Recently there has been an article put on a website that talks about pro-life and why pro-life should be the only option. In the article, it states the issues that make a women's right to get an abortion wrong and that abortions should be outlawed. It says that no one should deny the fetus the right to live, that it is a human being and should be protected by the law like everyone else. That if one did not want to be pregnant there is safe and effective birth controls out there. And that society needs to be more excepting of teen mothers.
