Not everybody is simply for or against abortion; there are some general sides or exceptions that a person would consider. What about a woman who has been raped and later found out she has become pregnant? She should have the right to abort. Even though she has the right to give the baby up for adoption she still should not have to have an everyday reminder for nine months from one excruciating night. Another side to this debatable topic is someone who might not have the financial support it takes to not only raise a child but to give birth to one as well. Doctor and hospital fees at the beginning of child birth can rack up quick and they aren't cheap. Then come all the diapers, formula, and clothing. A woman has the choice for adoption as well but the hospital and doctor fees never disappear completely. There are a lot of single moms out there who struggle to survive daily, but they never had the choice because they would have been looked at in a negative way.
These circumstances are realistic and can be a good argument for an abortion. That's why any American should have the right to argue these exceptions and not necessarily be "pro life" or "pro choice". With all these circumstances given what other types of exceptions can give a good argument rather than the typical two sides?
Another way to look at the pro-choice abortion side is if the mother is in danger or will die when having the baby. This happened to my aunt and was pro-life but because of the circumstance of her low blood count, she had to have an abortion.
ReplyDeleteI believe in the mothers right to choose whether to have the baby or not. I believe it is her body and she should be allowed to do with it as she pleases. But also believe after a certain point in the fetuses growth it would be considered murder. Even though a woman who has abortion after abortion after abortion seems cruel, after a certain point her body will no longer allow her to reproduce and it's natures way of saying F*** YOU!
ReplyDeleteIn all fairness, the choice to have an abortion is the mother's. While I don't agree with using abortion as a post-contraceptive, it's still the mother's right.
ReplyDeleteI believe there are millions of ways to avoid abortions. Even if you can not afford to raise the baby there are places such as police stations that will take the baby, no questions asked. I feel that it is the mother's decision but the father should be apart of it too, it is just as much her baby as it is his. Rape victims it is a hard choice because they are reminded everyday of what happened, but that is still a living baby and it should not die because of what a horrible person did.
