Should Women Have the Right to Abortion ? The topic of abortion is a controversial issue that is yet to resolve. In 1973, the Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade established abortion rights in the constitution that extended woman’s decision on abortion within months of pregnancy until viability of the fetus.

It can’t be properly enforced and screens are a good tool for school. “Shut Down Your Screen Week” can’t be properly enforced.
