Persuasive Essay On Abortion

As we get older it isn’t uncommon for woman to get pregnant, but with that you also hear about abortions more frequently. To me woman shouldn’t have an abortion unless it is for a medical reason. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2014 there were 652,639 cases of legal abortions in the United States. if you really put it into perspective out of 1,000 women 21.1 of them have had an abortion. To many people that may seem like not a high number but to me I think about lives that could be here on earth if the baby wasn’t taken for a reason such as the mother’s life is endangered, or the mother had been rapped. What I don’t exactly stand for is when they have abortions because they can’t afford the baby, the parents are just teenagers, or simply just because they don’t want to have a baby. As all three of those difficulties could be solved with getting help from the government, help from a school and counselor on how to budget money, family members could help, or even as a last option putting your baby up for adoption. Taking the life of a baby for a non-medical reason is not okay because there are plenty of other options.

Abortion is constantly called on for being a crime and should become illegal. Abortion is considered wrong during late term pregnancy although, the woman's life is being threatened the more she progresses towards the time she is due. Women who are in life threatening position during their pregnancy should have the right towards abortion. Due to the women being inefficient towards continuing further on in their pregnancy. Also, the women should be allowed the right to abort because it is still their own body and at the end of the day it should still come down to their decision. Another important reason that abortion should be legal is that some women were not even allowed the choice to conceive due to being abused and raped.

Taking into consideration the fact that life begins at the moment of conception, it is therefore murder to kill the foetus. Also, abortion is morally wrong because the procedure ends the life of an innocent child who cannot defend himself or herself. The child is not given any choice. It is my belief that nobody should be allowed to end a life, no matter the circumstances.

The Supreme Court has had a big impact on many events over the past hundred years or so. So there are many cases that have changed history, but one of the main ones would have to be the Roe vs. Wade case. This cases stands out because it is over the hot topic, which has been discussed for about a hundred years now. That topic would be abortion. This is a very controversial issue because there are so many views on abortion. For instance some people believe it is okay that a mother has an abortion because it is her body so it is her choice, and the other side would say abortion is completely wrong because it is the murdering of an innocent child. So it is no surprise that this case occurred. Even though this case did occur there is still not full closure on this topic since it is so controversial.

Over the last sixty years, one of the most prolific, and defining issues in American politics has been the issue of abortion. Abortion has been around for thousands of years but was rarely talked about in public before the mid-nineteenth (Todman). In the past, crude methods were quite the norm but as time has gone on, our medical knowledge has expanded so that there are more humane ways to perform an abortion. Early on, state governments began to pass legislation to ban the medical procedure. As time passed on into the mid-twentieth century became more accepted to talk about the practice, more abortion providers began to advertise in the America’s. From then on, the abortion debate continued to until it's reached its peak with the highly controversial Roe v Wade case in 1971. (Roe v Wade. FindLaw's,…). This marked a change in legislation as it was the first time it legally protected abortion. Still, to this day after forty-five years, sixty-three percent of Americans disagree with “Roe v. Wade” and abortion (Liu). With the ushering in of the Trump administration, the debate has flared up again as Republicans within the House of Representative propose and pass a bill banning abortions after twenty weeks of pregnancy. They cite that that many babies born slightly past the twenty-week mark, survive with relatively few complications. This controversial legislation has re-ignited the debate as to not just how ethical abortions but at what is the true age of viability for fetuses,

For decades feminist have been fighting for equality. From the right to vote to equal pay wages and in today’s world serving their country. The fight continues for equality, acceptance and fairness when it comes to the wishes of an individual.

Women have had the struggle of being denied equality in both politically and socially events. One ongoing political debate is regarding abortion and whether or not it should be prohibited. Many critics oppose to permit this option due to constitutional or religious belief of ending a life before it begins. Abortion can be looked upon as a sinful or unforgivable action which can make lots of people judge women almost immediately. Efforts to keep strict law restrictions over abortion have continued, although, what many fail to realize is that an abortion can sometimes play a huge factor into saving a mother's life. The unending discussion was ignited for year but one of the main reason for the debate was based on by the decision formed from the Roe v. Wade case in 1973.

Approximately 32,100 pregnancies are from a result of rape each year. Roughly 50% of those women underwent an abortion so that they would not have to be constantly reminded of the tragedy they had to dreadfully experience. Although, less than 0.5% of women who aborted say their reason was rape (Guttmacher Institute.) 8 states financially compensate women for abortions for those who have been victims of rape. Thinking of the potential negative life one could have, a baby should not come into the world unwanted and being unable to be cared for. Most babies that are aborted, are aborted because the parents either won't be able to take care of the future child or they don’t want to take care of their child. The environment in which the child would most likely have grown up in leads to stressors and can cause people to crack under the wrongdoings of their life.

Since 2010 there has been over 13 thousand abortions in Alberta alone. It is estimated that there are 40-50 million abortions every year worldwide and 125 thousand every day. Without abortions young children would be dropping out of school due to the fact of having to watch that child they had, victims of rape would be living with a constant reminder of what caused them so much emotional pain and depression, and some children would be born with life threatening illnesses which could possibly kill the child anyway.

In countries that have made abortion illegal, over 70,000 maternal deaths occur each year as a result of self-induced abortion. Abortion is a highly controversial topic that people have debated for years. Abortion is the act of deliberately terminated a pregnancy and is most often performed during the first 28 weeks. This is a highly controversial topic that has been debated in politics for many years. Some argue that abortion is immoral, and can even be considered murder. On the controversy, others believe that abortion is saving the children from being raised in an unstable family. Currently, abortion is legal in the U. S., however some states may have some restrictions on abortion. In the end, however, abortions are supported to help protect the rights of the mother.

77% of anti-abortion advocates are men, 100% of them will never have to make the choice of whether or not to have an abortion. Why do men have the right to say things and are allowed to input their opinion about abortions when the majority of them won't ever get an abortion or have to decide if they are ready to take care of an unexpected child. There are many reasons that women choose to have an abortion, and the decision is often never made hastily or without thought. There are often circumstances that make an abortion a very reasonable decision, and it’s not always about a mistaken pregnancy. In cases of rape woman should be able to abort free of judgement. If the mother's health is affected than she should be able to make the choice without someone criticizing her. When teen pregnancies occur the mother shouldn't have to be bullied because of a simple mistake that thousands of other people make every year. Women should not have to ask for permission to do what she deems necessary for her OWN body. Women should have an option to have an abortion if they feel it's necessary especially in cases of rape, when it affects their overall health and/or well being and when teen pregnancies occur.

Abortion is a very controversial matter in our generation. Abortion is known to be the unlawful killing of an unborn child thus, abortion is not to be considered right. Many people agree that abortion is an act of murder and its cruel. Others may say that doing it is okay since abortion is legal and because some people may be financially incompetent to raise a child. Getting abortion will help women financially and will lessen the burden of thinking about a child to support. Especially during this time when the goods and services are highly increasing, people are having a hard time keeping up and may not be able to survive. Furthermore, letting a woman do abortion improves their rights and might be justifiable for them but it is still wrong to end a life that has just began. Human life is sacred and inviolable at every moment of existence, including the initial phase prior to birth. Procured abortion is never a mere personal choice but a grave offense against God and His creation. However, if every child in the womb is created by God and conception is the definite starting point of life. Then every child should be a wanted child. Moreover, getting abortion can cause harmful effects to the mother’s health. Therefore, abortion is always wrong.

Within the year of 2017 there were 891,541 abortions that took place in The United States. There are so many strong arguments that fight against and for the right to have a abortion.The main issue usually lies with the circumstances that would justify the abortion, making it practically impossible to solve. Reasons why women will decide to have abortions is because of the inability to support a child, birth control failure, birth defects, rape or insest, as well as medical conditions that could endanger the women's health. Reasons why people argue not to have a abortion is becasue it takes away innocent lives, it violates civil rights of that baby, it can leave the woman with complications that are harmful to their health, and the baby’s organs may be used without any knowledge of it. A abortion case will be explained from a Christian worldview perspective of ethical dilemmas that will differentiate between if a baby with down syndrome should be aborted or live a life with the disorder.

Many people believe that women should be able to do what they want with their body, including aborting their unborn child. Abortion is the killing of an fetus before its live birth. I believe that women should be able to make choices for their body on their own, but aborting a child isn’t their choice because it isn’t their body that they are effecting. If women are allowed to abort their unborn child, then why is murder illegal? They both contain the same principle of taking someone’s life, while one is legal and one is not. Taking someone’s life should be illegal in all cases.

Can you imagine the pain of knowing you killed an innocent child? While having to wake up every day not being able to forget the unforgettable, tragic & intriguing moment? Well lots of women suffer from this problem. About 5% of women will have an abortion by the age of 20. There are 2,899 abortions per day (“Abortion Statistics”). That is 2,899 children that could have been successful later on in life and have an impact on the world someday. But now that is unable to happen because of one scary word, ABORTION. An abortion is when a pregnancy is purposefully ended so it doesn’t result in a result of a child (“Merriam-Webster”). Abortions should be illegal because they are morally wrong, can often lead to depression for mothers, & are very harmful to women’s health.
