Humans have the right to make their own decisions based on how it will benefit them in the future. They grow up with morals and learn how to choose from right and wrong, which ultimately leads them down their best path. Although people think this path is their best or only option, it may sometimes be misleading and become a mistake, but mistakes can be fixed. Making mistakes is part of human nature.

Many women would rather get an abortion when the baby is still a fetus than completing the full term because they cannot bear to give their child to another after witnessing the birth.

If a woman was forced to give birth and raise her unwanted child, then it is unfair to the baby because he/she is living a life where he/she is constantly reminded of how he/she was a mistake. This can be traumatizing both for the mother to live every day with the constant reminder of her mistake and for the child who knows it was
