One of today's most controversial topics is abortion. Although every person has there own opinion on the topic there is only two ways to look at it. The two ways to look at abortion are either pro-choice or pro-life. Abortion is a very common practice by many people. Abortions are so common that for every four babies born alive there is one baby who dies because of abortion. Even though abortion is legal by the government it should be made illegal because of the physical side effects on the women who go through with the procedure, the horrific ways the procedure is done and because it is really taking the life of a living human being. Abortions usually have terrible side effects because of the way the abortion is done. One reason for these side effects is because how dangerous the procedure is. Many of the women who have abortions are never informed on the side effects that can occur because of having the abortion. One of …show more content…
One way that abortion is done is through a procedure that rips the limbs off of the baby and sucks out all of the blood and the body parts. This form of abortion is the most common for of abortion used today. Another form of abortion is one where a loop shaped knife is inserted into the cervix and the fetus is cut up into pieces and sucked out. One of the worst forms of abortion is called partial birth abortion. This abortion is when amniotic liquid is removed through the abdomen and concentrated salt is injected in. This salt burns away the fetus’s skin, killing it. After the skin has been eaten away the mother goes into labor and delivers the dead baby. When in labor the baby’s legs and arms are removed but the baby’s head is left inside. The doctors then pry open the babies head and suck out the brains of the child. These methods are very horrible and most definitely disgusting. Are these cruel ways of performing abortion considered
Abortion has always been a controversial topic, and with debates from the recent presidential election bringing abortion back into the spotlight, it is clear that people have varying views as well as a great misunderstanding of abortion. Often, the morality of such action is widely discussed, and stones are quickly thrown. I believe that abortion should be legally and safely obtainable in all cases for women who feel it is the best path to take in their pregnancy. While abortion is currently legal in all 50 states, some lawmakers are working to make abortions virtually unobtainable. For example, in Ohio, a heartbeat bill sat on the desk of Governor Kasich.
The abortion is performed at a late stage. Therefore, the baby can and will feel all the pain. The needle is injected through the woman’s stomach and into the baby (Levintno). The ideal spot for the needle will either be the head, stomach, or
These would be deadly for the women or a trip to the hospital or a lengthy hospital stay. More women were coming in due to botched abortions then birth at one point in America. (Guttmacher)With the law in place women have clinics that are certified and have board certified MD’s to do the procedures and have become safer. Those who support pro-life, want the women who are pregnant to have the baby, and put it up for adoption, or go to a Mercy Center (if no family support).
Pro-Choice vs. Pro-Life Abortion. The word alone has the power to make a room go still. The popular debate topic has a reputation of provoking aggression no matter where it is mentioned due to its strong relation to people’s rights and ethics, but does it really need further deliberation? Abortions should be kept legal across the United States for a multitude of reasons: they allow people to stay in school and work, largely lessen likelihood of would-be-parents falling into economic depressions, prevent overload of responsibilities to the unprepared, protect women’s rights to privacy, help reduce the number of parentless children, conserve resources, give options, decrease maternal injuries, lower crime rates, and maintain the amount of federal spending on welfare.
I think that abortions should be legal if the woman doesn't want the child because of a rape, financial status, relationship status. I feel that the government should not have control over a woman's body and her choices. I believe that it is wrong for a women to have an abortion close to the end of
Abortion, a very opinionated topic in our society all over the world. For there are two most popular opinions perhaps even more but I am focusing on the two opinions of either Pro Abortion or Pro Choice. I am pro choice myself yet the most popular choice is that it should be illegal, I have came to this conclusion from a CNN poll. Pro choice rings it at 39% while Pro Abortion rings in with a 58%. As to why I am Pro Choice, here’s why.
The two types of surgical abortions are vacuum aspiration and dilatation and evacuation. When a vacuum aspiration is preformed the pregnancy is terminated using gentle suction. This is done in the first fifteen weeks of pregnancy. In the first fourteen weeks the surgery is performed with a local anesthetic at fifteen weeks the abortion is conducted with a sedative. In the Dilatation and evacuation procedure the abortion is conducted by using narrow forceps passed through the neck of the womb and some gentle suction.
Ever since the case of Roe v. Wade in 1973, abortion has been one of the biggest things to talk about; one of the ongoing issues of today’s society. In which there are mainly 2 sides to this… Pro-life and Pro-choice. Pro-Life meaning you’re against abortion and then there’s Pro-Choice in which people either don’t care or believe it SHOULD be legal. In which one side believes its murder, the other believes it helps life forms in an ironic kind of way.
Abortion Abortion is the ending of pregnancy by abolishing a fetus or embryo before it can survive outside the uterus. Abortion is a very controversial topic, for example, one side of this topic believes abortion is cruel and committing murder, while the other side believes that since the fetus or embryo isn 't developed enough to be considered a living human being yet, that abortion is not commiting murder. Despite this information, there is a lot more to abortion than the opinion of it being “right” or “wrong”. According to “Students for life” who are pro life, about 1 million abortions are executed each year in the US. That data adds up to 22% of pregnancies ending in abortion.
Abortion has many pros and cons ha deserve to be properly discussed ad deliberated upon,before one makes a decision to support or oppose it. Every year man young women within the United States find themselves faced with an unplanned pregnancy. Whether it was unplanned or they were a victim of un consensual sex,it should naturally be the woman 's choice to have the baby or not. As young wom it can be more stressful to take on the responsibil of a child,i can even be life threatening. In some cases it is necessary to abo the baby
Social Aspects of Abortion I. History of Abortion Since ancient times, abortions had been performed using herbal abortifacients, by applying force on the abdomen or by other traditional methods such as strenuous labor or exercise, pouring hot water onto the abdomen, etc. There have been archaeological finds that have discovered the use of crude methods of surgical attempts to extract the fetus. Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) believed that abortion can be practiced on it before the fetus develops sensation. He drew the line between lawful and unlawful depending on the sensation as the fact of being alive .The
The termination of pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo from the womb before it can survive on its own is called abortion. Nowadays, abortion is so common that more than forty percent of all women will perform abortion at some time of their reproductive lives. While this numbers are scary, what is more troublesome is that several countries support this dreadful act. Society is now considering this act of murder each day more normal, and position the mother 's rights before the baby´s rights. Killing an adult is no different than killing a fetus, both are genetically unique and were made by God.
Abortion is a highly controversial issue with many different agreements both for and against pro-choice agreements include medical emergencies, the need for an abortion because of rape or incest, and if abortion is not legal it will force illegal; unsafe
According to Robert J. White M.D., Ph.D., professor of neurosurgery at Case Western University states that an unborn baby at 20 weeks in the womb “is fully capable of experiencing pain…without question, [abortion] is a dreadfully painful experience for any infant subject to such a surgical procedure.” So not only does the unborn baby have to die, but they also experience a painful death. The entire process disregards the feelings of the fetus. The children did not ask to come into this world, therefore they should not be punished for the actions of their parents. There are other avenues parents can pursue rather than
This leads to severe health consequences ranging from visceral injury, genital injury to septicemia and death. An estimated 19 million unsafe abortions occur worldwide each year, resulting in the death of 70,000 women, contributing to 8.9% of maternal mortality 3,4. There are innumerable ways in which unsafe abortion can be conducted. Objects used for abortions are knitting needles, wooden or metal sticks, roots of plants or even a bougie. The complications can manifest immediately or after a few days5.
