92 percent of all abortions take place in the first trimester. At this point in the pregnancy, the baby health depends on the mother to survive. With this said, the baby cannot exist outside of the womb, therefore it cannot be qualified as a separate entity (Lowen, 2016). If a baby does not qualify as a separate entity, then it does not have the right from the Constitution. Hence why abortion is not murder and the rights of women should not be restricted. The need for an abortion came before the 1880’s

Not only is abortion a foolish personal choice but it is also a grave offense to God and his creations. For many Christians, the anti-abortion struggle has always been a religious duel with Christians across the nation. This is because the Churches that preach on abortion are very clear and leave no doubt that abortion is murder. Many religions don’t encourage birth control or abortion because they believe that sexual intercourse is for procreation purposes only. With that being said, terminating

medical abortions are those induced by pharmaceuticals. They can cost up to $800, but they usually end up being less than that because the total cost is dependent on how many additional tests the patient decides to have done. The most common medicine used to induce an abortion is called mifepristone. This specific pill is said to be very effective and has a success rate of 97 out of 100. Abortion pills can be found at clinics, and they are usually accompanied by antibiotics. The first abortion pill

“The pregnancy rate among young women has declined steadily, from 117 pregnancies per 1,000 women aged 15–19 in 1990 to 68 per 1,000 in 2008” (Guttmacher institute) Even though the number of unplanned teen pregnancies are decreasing, this ad is focusing on teen moms. The ads display small children with distressed looks on their faces, a banner across the middle and other text around the children.

malice aforethought. So I ask you is abortion wrong? Do you think its ok to do so? Should it only be up to the woman? Should people study how to effectively kill an unborn child? Would it be ok if you were raped by someone, whether someone close, or a complete stranger? Is adoption not an option for some?

I. Gender Roles “Abortion can be seen as women’s ultimate rejection of the traditionally lauded mother-only role.

If a woman chooses to terminate her pregnancy, she is challenging the traditional role of wife and mother; thereby shattering societal expectations and not conforming to traditional gender roles. Based on a study

China’s one child policy effects the families of China more than any of us in the United States could ever imagine. The policy limits the number of children that each couple may have. Many believe this to be unfair, and against their rights. China put this policy into effect in order to control its drastically increasing population.
