The Pros And Cons Of Abortion

Since Roe v. Wade in 1973 the Nation has been divided into two schools of thought. Both sides have convincing arguments that are heard all around. The Pro-Life group believes that abortion is ultimately murder. Even if that human is not born you are killing the potential of a living homo sapien. The Pro-Choice group on the other hand looks at this not as murder but an infringement of our constitutional rights and that we are empowering women to make this a decision about their body and not to be obstructed by the government’s views.(Abortion Procon.org) Maureen Shaw is a feminist, writer, and a mother. She has wrote many articles for websites including, Quartz, The Atlantic, Huffington Post, and many others. Maureen Shaw a writer on social issues has wrote an article on how becoming a mother has “made her even more Pro-Choice.” on the website Rewire. This article describes how the conservatives in the United States and those of conventional thinking have a clouded view on why women have abortions and why they are getting abortions. Shaw’s journey into motherhood has strengthened her view on abortion and on the right-wing political ideologies to judge her motivations.

“How can the “Dream” survive if we murder children? Every aborted baby is like a slave in the womb of his or her mother. The mother decides his or her fate” (Martin Luther King, Jr). This quote, by Martin Luther King Jr, represents how Martin Luther King Jr really feels about abortions, and how abortions relate back to the idea of slavery. As abortions are spreading all across the world many people have wondered if there are any positives to abortions? If there are not any positives to abortion then people may wonder, what are the negatives to abortions, and how do other people feel about abortions.

One reason women may choose to have an abortion is they don’t have the financial resources to support themselves or a child. By allowing women to make their own reproductive choices, it will allow women in poverty stricken situations to choose what they feel is right. A study from The University of Massachusetts at Amherst conducted on Oct. 2010 found that women at all income levels earn less when they have children.

In recent discussion of abortions, a controversial issue has been whether the government should be able to have control over whether women can terminate their pregnancies or not. On one hand of the argument, some people believe that it's not the government's place to regulate women's right to abort their child, or to not. From one perspective, it is believed that women should have the right to do what they please with their bodies and that the choice is theirs (pro-choice). However, there are also people who think that abortions should be made illegal and that if you make a child you should not be able to abort it just because you can (pro-life). The government thinks that by outlawing abortions that it will get rid of them all together and they won't have anything to worry about. When in all actuality this will be the cause of more issues to come. Whether you believe in the 1973 decision of the Roe v. Wade ruling or not this is certainly going to be an ongoing debate for many years to come with two very strong and opinionated sides.

While abortion is currently legal in the United States, ideologically, it should not be legal as it is considered to many a cruel and unjust malpractice. Not only is it morally wrong to abort a child due to it being a sin for those with religious beliefs, but it also involves other issues like the safety of a woman’s body. However, those who are pro-choice on abortion indicate that since it is the woman’s body, one deserves to have the right on deciding whether to have the child or not as they are aware of the consequences before making a decision. In many cases, a woman who aborts has a legitimate reason as to why she made that decision: it may range from rape to not earning enough income in order to raise a child. Ultimately, those are just pitiful excuses that don’t give enough reasoning. There are many alternatives on aborting a child such as giving the baby up for adoption to a family who will love and nurture the baby or giving the parental right to a trustworthy family member knowing it will remain in good hands.

Abortion is one of the many options when women get pregnant. This option has been around since the ancient times and has been studied by every culture at some time period. An abortion is taking the child out of the mother’s stomach before it is grown enough to live outside of the mother’s womb. There are many methods of getting an abortion. Some of the many different methods used for abortion are suction aspiration, saline injection, and prostaglandin chemical abortion. The most common type of abortion is suction aspiration. This procedure is a lot like a vacuum for the baby, it is sucked out of the mother’s womb but it also tears the baby apart. A miscarriage is a type of abortion but the mother cannot help that from happening, it is just

Abortion is a procedure where a woman takes a fetus out her vagina. While it’s a fetus a stage of how a baby is form. Many people see that women as a murderer, which is not a murder because it’s a pregnancy, pregnancies can go many ways and the baby can die or live. I myself thought that abortion was a wrong thing, but its till you live or hear from experiences. That can cause the change of mind. Abortion got an ugly reputation in 1652, years where people followed the Christianity beliefs and views. As the bible speaks of unborn children, the Christian community detested the purposely killing of an unborn child. As they belief the unborn child is the sperm that male carries. So in the old times they were more religious and strict with

Society can be so judgmental no matter what you do someone will always have a different way of viewing it than you do, or you’re not doing it the way everyone think it should be done so you’re instantly “Judged”. Whatever you do in life make it be for yourself, always make the decision you think needs to be made because whatever the decision is nobody else will have to live with either the mistake or the lesson learned but you.

“I relive that day over and over again in my dreams. Not a single day goes by that I don't hate myself for my decision...” An abortion is a termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed the first 28 weeks of the pregnancy. (BPAS) If someone were smart they simply would not have sex until they want a baby, it is not that hard at all, or just get birth control and use protection. Abortion should be illegal and out of our country. It is not an excuse, it is murder and this paper is going to prove that. It is a moral to kill an unborn child for convenience. Throughout the years conception has risen by 30 percent, but the births actually decreased by 6 percent, proves that women were using abortions as a type of birth control, a cruel and distinguishing sort of insurance policy.

Abortion is the termination of a human pregnancy and is most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. Abortion became legalized in 1973 and can be used in any reason for the killing of the baby. However, in some states teenagers are required to have the consent of their parents or guardians in order to have an abortion. In California, you are allowed to have an abortion without parental consent, even if you are a minor, and the government will pay all cost of the procedure if you can not afford it. This is legal due to the Privacy Act that was passed in 1974 that stops the spread of information of individuals that are maintained in systems of records by federal agencies. It is up to the women to pick the “choice” to kill a human being. Though no matter what procedure is used the results are the same, a dead baby. Each year 1,500,000 babies are killed due to abortion. This means that 4,000 babies are killed daily. Even though women chose to have an abortion many usually do not know how the killings are done.

Abortion is the removing of a human’s pregnancy. Thes is happen in the first 28 week.Some states have laws as to when thes happens.Texes has a lemite up to 14 weeks. The state of New Mexico has a lemite up to 28 weeks.

For the people that are agent abortion would agree that is okay for a woman to have abortion base only on the grounds of if they were rape. “It would leave out entirely the unborn person whose existence is due to rape. Pending the availability or some further argument, then, we would be left with the conclusion that unborn person whose existence is due to rape has no right to the use of their mother’s bodies, and thus that aborting them is not depriving them of anything they have a right to and hence is not unjust killing.” This show that a fetus does not have rights to the mother’s body. I can agree with them on that part because it would be absolutely wrong for a woman to have a child for a person that heart them. For the other fetus they have a right to leave then those that came from a woman that was raped. I believe that there are still going to be cases that are going to be shamed. Thomson gave an example of what completely can happen to women. Which is that a woman is trying to have the baby but if she keeps the fetus it will kill her. The option of abortion is brought up in order to help save the women life. The group of people that are completely agent it would say it’s a right of life to try to have the child still and if it takes the mother life then that was the path she was supposed to have. But Thomson is arguing that if you are giving a chose to save your life and the doctors are telling you that the baby is going to kill you. You will choose the option to

Generally speaking, most large religious groups agree that abortion is an act of murder. For them, it’s not just a matter that concerns a human being and their conscience, but something that concerns a human being and their God.₂ The widespread opinion that abortion is wrong is favored in many different religions such as Christianity (the most popular religion in the world), Buddhism, and Islam. That being said, not all included in the faiths agree. The questions that most commonly come up when speaking regarding both abortion and religion include; When does life begin? Whose life takes precedence - the mother’s or the child’s? And does abortion constitute murder?₅ Because abortion is seen as so wrong by so many major religions across the world, it’s difficult to argue that abortions are right. All of the religions have clear

Abortion is the termination of the fetus before it has been born. Abortion is either induced or spontaneous. An induced abortion is intentional and kills the baby while it is in its mother's uterus. The baby is killed either by the mother taking medication or by surgically killing it (Abortion the). This type of abortion normally occurs in the first or second trimester (Abortion Merriam). A spontaneous abortion is a natural death of the baby before it is born. This type of abortion is also known as a miscarriage and can happen anywhere between the first and twentieth week of the pregnancy(Abortion the). There are abortion clinics women can go to to have an induced abortion. There are different procedures women can have done to abort their baby.

In May of 2014, Gallup asked the public what they think of abortion. Twenty-eight percent felt that abortion should be legal under any circumstances, twenty-one percent thinks that abortion should be illegal in all circumstances, and fifty percent saw that abortion should be legal under certain circumstances. Another poll was taken during the month of January of 2015, thirty-four percent of Americans were satisfied with U.S. abortion policies. Pew research found out that sixty-three percent of Americans wouldn't like to see the court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision, as to twenty-nine percent would like to see the Roe v. Wade case overturned.
