Dying Fetus

those who continued the medication throughout pregnancy at 25% (Cohen et al. 2006). Furthermore, effects on the fetus can include “premature birth, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction, and postnatal complications” (Lyerly, Little, & Faden, 2009, p. 5). If at all possible, medication should be tested in order to prevent relapses in major depression and possible issues with the fetus in the coming future. There should not be as many concerns about taking medications without first weighing…

protected unborn fetus. And I believe women are able and willing to pregnant in the future should not work with lead whether from the point of moral or legal. The reason is all the study already indicated that lead will causes damage to the brain and central nervous system of a fetus. Also studies indicated that fetuses exposed to lead before birth may be born early or underweight (LEAD SAFE). From the point view of consequentialist, if we know lead would done seriously damage to the fetus, then…

carry and give birth to the fetus with Down’s syndrome, was endangering only her wishes for a particular type of livelihood, and not her life itself. Taking inspiration from famed philosopher Marquis’ argument, this essay will outline the premises that make abortion wrong, but add an exception for cases wherein the pregnancy and eventual childbirth poses a threat to the mother’s physical health and life. It will be argued that aborting because of disability in the fetus (child), such was in…

There is no clear decision as to when an unborn child has its own rights. Some Mothers do not find out they are pregnant until the fourth or fifth week of pregnancy. Then, there is the matter of letting the Father know, but what if there is no “father”? That is where there are issues whether to abort or not. The Mother has to decide if she is physically and financially stable to raise a child. If it is a teen pregnancy, there is the matter of school, working, money, but most importantly,…

The common debate among for abortion to be permissible or impermissible always falls on the idea that abortion is murder, and thus the idea that life begins at conception. Many factors play a role in the abortion debate: one believing that life begins at conception, that all murders are impermissible, and whether a woman has a certain obligation to her body. The argument is flawed; for the simple plausible element that abortion is permissible. When you look at abortion, you need to decide which…

The fetus, just like a human, has all the functioning organs it needs to have to be considered a human and needs to have the right of life. "Blood, tissue, and tiny organs were pulled out of their environment into a filter" (Terzo 1). Based on the information acquired, abortion should be illegal because abortion is murder, Norma (Roe) lied in court to take part in the legalization of abortion, the fetus is a human and has the right to be born, there are health complications towards the mother…

Our Bodies, Our Rights Abortion should be legalized as it is a women’s moral right to decide what to do to their own bodies. Statistics show that there are approximately 1.21 million abortions each year and 3,315 each day. Taking this right away from women is wrong. Instability, inconvenience and morality plays a huge part of the reason why. Instability is the main reason why women turn to abortions. Financial instability is number one, many women or couples are financially unstable. in no…

even though a fetus has the right to life, it does not necessarily give it the right to use the mother’s body. Especially when the mother is not ready for the pregnancy or not ready to be a mother for any reason. It also shows that it is not wrong for a woman to get an abortion because she has the right to control what goes into or comes out of her body. If a woman has an unwanted pregnancy, she has the right to want the fetus out of her, and to do something about it. That fetus has no more…

“The medical community is largely cheering advances in non­invasive fetal DNA tests, fetal genome mapping and chromosomal microarrays that scour fetal DNA. But some opponents of abortion see this new technology as a threat, and they 're responding by restricting when women can terminate a pregnancy. Advocates for the disabled are also concerned, fearing that women may end pregnancies based on misinformation or myths” (Szabo). By looking at the articles, it is evident that hundreds of newborns…

Introduction She was on a flight to New York for business meetings about her modeling career. Even though she was only 19 she has been modeling ever since 15 and she still hasn’t stopped. She was so excited about this interview that her heart was pounding the whole flight there. Her hands sweaty and her face expression full of excitement. She got out of the airport, took a taxi, and went straight to the hotel to clear her mind for a bit. Her name is Karlie, a modeling and business…
