Should abortion be legal?

Abortion is a very controversial topic. Everyone has their own opinions about it and they base their opinions on many things. The two main sides to abortion are Pro-Choice and Pro-Life. 

 

Pro choice is where you think abortion should be legal for anyone who wants one without reason. A lot of people say “My body, my choice.” They argue that they should be able to get an abortion without the government having a say over it. In 2022 over 609,000 people had an abortion. Abortion is legal in California, Colorado, Connecticut, and Delaware. Some states have a rule where you can only get it if you have not passed a certain week, while others you can get it whenever. 75% of people get an abortion because it was a mistake that they got pregnant and they are not able to care for the baby. 

 

Pro life on the other hand is where you think it should be illegal unless medically necessary. Over 12% of people that have an abortion end up regretting it. In the end, having an abortion is ending the life of an innocent baby before they even have a chance to live because some people can make smart decisions.  Abortion is already illegal in 41 states.

 

All abortions are bad, I believe that abortions should be illegal everywhere. Unless your life is at risk, you should have to go through with the pregnancy. You got pregnant therefore you can have the baby. There are so many things you can do after if you are unable to provide for the baby, but give them a chance to live a life like you and I. There are always people waiting to adopt and people that are unable to have kids of their own that would be more than happy to help raise that baby for you. Abortions are against my religion and are morally and ethically wrong. 



Are you pro life or pro choice?

  • I think abortions really depend on the situation, not all are bad. For example if your are teen and get pregnant because you werent being safe then I think you should step up and be responsible for your actions and take care of the baby or even grow it and give it a chance of life because you can give it to another family that is ready to take care of the baby.  I think if you have been put in a bad situation where you didnt want anything to happen then I think its fair to have an abortion.

  • I don't think all abortions are bad. I think it depends on the situation. If a young girl were to be raped and end up pregnant, I think they should be able to have that option. If it happens due to something you did willingly, then I think the circumstances are differnent. 

    • I disagree with you, I belive that all abortions are bad. 

  • I agree with you. I think aboritions and wrong and the baby should be given a chance at life. I like that you shared about things to do afterwards if you are not ready to care for the baby. I am pro life because when you get pregnant you are usually at fault. If you can make the choice to do something that gets you pregnant, then you can step up and make the right choice by having the baby.

    • I agree with you for being pro life. There are many other options then abortion for people. 

  • Many people think different but in my opinion not all abortions are bad it just depends on the scenario. If you are a teen and get pregnant on accident then I can see why you would get an abortion but this could be prevented by making better choices and waiting until older years.

    • I disagree with you, if a teen gets pregent at a young age. Then they should own up th there mistakes because they made that decision. There is consequences for all actions that people make. There are so many more options then abortion. 

    • I disagree with the idea that abortions should be allowed in this situation of teen pregnancy. I think this because even if a teen gets pregnant at a young age, it's still a result of a choice they made, and they should take responsibility for that choice. Allowing teens to just abort their babies makes other teens think that there are no real consequences for their actions. This will lead to where teens will just do stuff, knowing they can simply end their pregnancy if anything happens. In the end, I think they should have to keep the baby because it was their choice and if they feel unprepared to raise the child themselves, adoption is always an option.

  • I agree with your opinion paragraph, i like how you explained why you think what you think. I like how you included the part where you said what you could do after you birth your baby and what options there are. I also like the part where you said that everyone is alwasy willing to adopt someone and taht there is alwasy someone wanting to make that next step imto their life. 

  • I am pro life because it is also against my religion and I also just think it is wrong. Abortion is just pretty much killing with a different name. I think it is wrong to end a life before it even starts and that it should be illegal in almost all scenarios. Overall it is just a bad thing and in my opinion it should be illegal.
