Discourse And Abortion

There are many irresponsible parents in modern society who don’t take responsibility over their children. Many mothers are left to raise a child all by themselves while other children have no mother to care for them at all. The very unfortunate children are left stranded by themselves with no one to care for them and guide them in the right direction. Abandonment is a serious crime that is getting worse now that more and more underage girls are having children and either abandoning them, or raising them without a father.

In the case of public abandonment, the women are often not mature enough to thoughtfully weigh their options or the consequences of their actions. Reasons for killing and/or discarding infants include extramarital paternity, rape, illegitimacy and perceiving the child as an obstacle to personal achievement.” (Brief Summary, 2000)

Can you imagine a heartless person leaving a baby in a trash can to fend for himself/herself because they can’t take care of it? That is an example of abandonment, or the act of deserting someone. Many people agree that abandonment is a tragic occurrence and should be stopped. Abandonment affects children. Children are our future, so if you want the future to be bright, then start with this generation.

Abandonment indicates a parent’s choice to have no part in his or her offspring’s life. This includes failure to support the child financially and emotionally, as well as failure to develop a relationship with his or her child. Sadly, parental abandonment leaves a child with doubt and uncertainty about the future. Throughout his or her life, this particular child could suffer from lasting questions of self-worth. In the opposite direction, the child could learn to resent his or her parents and remain incapable of trusting anyone. Regardless, intentional negligence of children leaves them with an unbearable pain that they must carry around for the rest of their lives. Child-care and the consequences

Previously unnoted, abandonment and the resulting loneliness in children have lasting impacts on adult life. As abandonment becomes increasingly more common, studies place emphasis on such impacts. Dr. Frankenstein’s monster is essentially a newborn baby when created. Caregivers teach infants to seek comfort,

Millions of children are living without parents around the world and they need help. Over 153 million youths around the world are without one or both parents, and 7 million of them are in institutional care (qtd. in “Children’s Statistics”). Worldwide, minors are suffering from living without a family and a stable relief system. International adoption, although often in the limelight, is on a slight decline and domestic adoption is increasing. Despite the fact that the percentage of people considering any form of adoption has decreased from 2007 to 2013, the percentage of foster care adoptions has experienced more growth than international and private adoptions (“BAAF Adoption

Nowadays, we see this abandonment in pregnant teenagers who are not ready for a child just yet. A girl throws her baby in a dumpster because she knows she can’t

They are left with no option than to find secret ways in abandoning the baby. There have been stories of mothers drowning a baby in a toilet or babies found in dumpsters (Phillipsen, 2003).

The other side may argue that children require love and care which abandonment takes away; However, abandoned children receive that love and care from others who step up in their parents’ place. This happens because the Atlantic finds that “the best and only sure remedy has been the willingness of responsible, loving foster parents to open their arms and homes to [abandoned] children” (Atlantic). These foster parents provide the love and necessities for children as they effectively become the children’s parents. Not only do these foster parents help stop the effects of abandonment, but these parents also care for the children as their own, giving those children the same, or better, childhood any child would get. Abandonment never leaves children with nowhere to go, as people, as well as society, volunteer to care for those children. This care allows children to develop into adults with no negative effects of abandonment, allowing them to live fulfilling lives in the long term. Furthermore, foster care helps children make bonds with others because foster children must interact with other adults and children during their childhood. Because of this Nelson argues that “the children placed in foster care displayed dramatic improvements in making emotional attachments” (Source E). In foster care, abandoned children form connections with their parents and other children. As children learn to interact with others, they form the bonds that allow for both a prosperous childhood and adulthood. From these bonds, the children learn vital social skill and make relationships that can last for their entire lives. With these connections, abandoned children grow into outstanding adults who live their lives to the fullest. Thus, foster care allows abandoned

Raising children is one of the most important responsibilities in any society. Today, working parents have many options, but what about those children who have neither a mother nor father? What about those children who come from broken and abusive homes? In such cases there are often few choices. Parentless children may be placed in orphanages or in foster homes. Ideally, foster care offers children more personalized attention than would normally be available at a public or private situation. However, orphanage care is notoriously uneven. While some children are indeed in loving homes, others find themselves neglected or

Abortion is an issue that can go both ways and a topic that is very controversial. Is a fetus a human? Does its life matter? Or it wasn’t supposed to happen to me or I was raped. Many people can think of abortion as a good and bad thing, it just depends on what the person’s intuition about abortion is. I decided to go with the topic over abortion because I feel it is a broad topic and can go two ways as in being defensive or immortal. During this topic over abortion I will be including two articles, “A Defense of Abortion” and “Why Abortion Is Immoral”. These articles will explain the difference in how they think abortion can be taken. For instance, the first article will talk about why Judith argues why abortion is not too bad to be allowed

     Adoption is metamorphosing into a radical new process that is both sweeping the nation and changing it. But this process is not an easy one, there are many steps to go through. Through research it is made a lot easier. Adoption is a also a highly visible example of a social institution that has benefits from and been reshaped by both the Internet and the exponential growth of alternative lifestyles, from single to transracial to gay. It is accelerating our transformation into a more multicultural society; even as it helps redefine out understanding of “family.” The process includes three main steps including a type of adoption, the techniques for location a baby for adoption, arranging

Abortion is a woman or teen pregnancy and end up making a choice of giving up on the baby, they go to the doctor and they perform a procedure that is going to kill the baby. People don´t realize how bad and horrible it is killing a baby they don´t know the exact representation of it. Meg Meeker a pediatrician had thought that having an abortion was acceptable because the woman can decide what they want for their body, until one day she seen a video of how exactly an abortion happens. She thought it was cruel on how they got rid of it. Obviously the women don´t see because they make them turn away. Meg described that ¨A woman laying down on her back, her face turned away. He talked to the sound of the vacuum used to extract the arms, the legs, and the shredded torso of the tiny child¨. People don´t feel bad because they don´t see exactly how the process is, they don´t know what´s going on or else they would feel bad. Yes 99% of the women don´t regret their

Since 1776, the United States of America has had a growing problem with orphans and childhood adoption. Orphanages become overpopulated while foster homes shelter up to 3 children on average. The foster care system has been viewed as positive reinforcement for American homes; yet the point of fostering children is consistently overlooked. Adoption is necessary for orphans, foster children, or children in abusive homes. The act of adopting a child comes with positive benefits and fiscal responsibility, such as government assistance and wiser spending. Children obtain a healthy childhood with a familiar sense of belonging. The drawback of this is the long governmental process of petitioning for adoption. Seeking the birthparents, if they are alive, retrieving consent, being fiscally responsible, and having a safe environment for the child to grow up in are all responsibilities to look forward to when adopting a child. The adoption rate in the United States of America needs to increase dramatically, as there are social benefits, mental health improvements, and economical advantages for families who adopt.

Because of the love and affection they receive, they learn to rely on the caregiver (mother) and to trust her. As they grow they learn by watching and imitating her, as well as by getting instructions and guidance from her. When they manage to do something, their learning is reinforced by her praise and approval. This is a normal scenario. This is the ideal environment for a child to develop his potential to the maximum. Moreover, studies have shown that infants who are abandoned and separated from their mothers become unhappy and depressed, sometimes to the point of panic. After long periods of separation and isolation, they show symptoms of apathy and withdrawal or restlessness, hyperactivity, inability to concentrate, and craving for affection.”
