Abortion: Should Women Receive Adoption?

Decent Essays
Women should have opportunities or rather options to choose what they do with their unborn baby. Pro-life supporters argue that women should have the baby regardless of the situation and if they don’t want it should put it up for adoption, but this isn’t a clear argument as to why a woman should have a baby. Women are choosing abortion over adoption because they can’t financial support a baby or were involved in cases such as rape or incest. They either cannot afford to financially care for the baby and themselves or women do not want to have a baby that was due to rape or incest because of the emotional baggage that baby could carry for the mother. It is unfair to bring an unwanted child that cannot be properly taken care of into the world.

    Whether it’s due to financial instability, the quality of life of the potential child, or rape resulting in pregnancy, women need to be able to make the choice to save their own lives. Those who are against abortion may feel they are “saving” the life of the unborn child, but many do not realize they are impairing, or even ruining, the life of the pregnant woman. It is the legal right of every woman to decide what is best in her life, her family, and her situation; America needs to realize that it must remain this…

    1- In the constitution of this country, we can read that all men were created equal, and that every man comes to this world with certain unalienable rights, regardless of their race, gender, or economic status.

    Abortion has been a great topic of debate for many years, both in terms of law/rights and in morality/religion. The constant debate has split people into two sides: Pro-Choice and Pro-Life. Those who are Pro-Choice believe that women have a right to decide the fate of their body, health, and life. They personally may not get an abortion, but they feel that it is still the right of the mother to choose. Abortion prevents unsafe pregnancies, protects women 's right to choose, liberates women from patriarchal control over women 's sexual and reproductive lives, and allows the mother to choose whether, when, and how often to have a child.…

    If a woman is pregnant and decides she doesn 't want an abortion just because she doesn 't want a kid. Then I feel she should just give it up for adoption. Abortions should NOT be used to terminate ANY unwanted pregnancy. If a woman wants to abort a child, I feel she should have a good reason such as: not having the money to do so, under 18, mentally unwell, or the mother 's life is at stake. The consequences of my viewpoint may be teens having sex more often and just having abortions if they don 't want the…

    I.Introduction The topic of abortion is currently one of the most controversial issues. The 1973 supreme court ruling of Roe v. Wade allowed for women to legally obtain abortions throughout their entire pregnancy, however, conditions were put into place that allowed for states to regulate abortions during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. The right to have an abortion is protected under the constitution’s 14th amendment which protects the basic rights of citizens. This ruling has left our country divided in half by those who are for and against abortion. Those who oppose Roe v. Wade are referred to as pro-life and those in agreement are pro-choice.…

    There has been a long existing debate of “Pro-Life” versus “Pro-Choice” about whether or not women should be able to abort a child. Many people being Pro-Choice will use the argument that the fetus isn 't a living person, and rather that it is the woman’s body; therefore the woman’s choice. There are other options women have such as adoption: waiting until the baby is born and providing the child a well-suited family to properly care for them. I believe any way you can avoid aborting a child is better than abortion because you give the child a chance for life. An unborn child in the womb contains all of the characteristics for it to be considered living, proving abortion is morally and scientifically wrong.…

    A woman will have to decide for herself, based on what she believes in, how her life will be with those beliefs, and who she will integrate with her decision. Abortion is not a choice for everyone, however for Pro-choice supporters is the right decision whether it is for convenience or to a woman who was a rape victim and wanted to end the pregnancy. It seems like an easy fix to a life problem that you can 't solve by yourself. If you start thinking about what will happen if abortions were made illegal, consequently a number of women will become injured or sterile as a result of the procedure. People will think that giving the child up for adoption could be the solution but in most cases, this can be very emotionally damaging for the child 's mother.…
