Unintended pregnancy

Miscarriages are another huge factor that can affect the child and the mother. A woman who does not want her child has the option to terminate her pregnancy by aborting it but not taking care of your body properly can result in a miscarriage.

It is a conditional fact about our human ways for ending pregnancies that result in the demise of the fetus. Given the current technologies, abortions might be achieved without ensuing in the death of a said baby. Thus, there is a gray area between the termination of a pregnancy, abortion, and the killing of a fetus, infanticide. The right to have an abortion is appropriately considered as a woman 's right to end a pregnancy. It is an understanding as a right that she has to control her body…

be a part of a country’s contraception policy. People should plan their families and society must allow women to end unwanted pregnancies in order to deal with failures of birth control, cases of rape and cases of incest. Abortion should be legalized but discouraged. Legal, because it is a choice; discouraged because there are other more effective ways to prevent pregnancy than abortion. Abortion is all about allowing a woman to make her own decisions, in relation to her age, financial…

for decision making based on the argument of greatest good. The consequentialists argue that may argue that an embryo does not have the capacity to feel pain or think therefore; carrying out an abortion is more like any other decision that avoids pregnancy. The theory also provides a decision making procedure for determining what is right or wrong about abortion. Abortion is immoral and it takes the life of an innocent child without a choice. This theory does not uphold the right of life and…

For most of the past 50 years, the United States has been divided on the issue of abortions. The fundamental basis for this argument centers on the issue of whether a fetus is a human life or not. This implies that abortion could be considered as murder if it is viewed as a human lifeform. On the other side, some people hold the view that the human fetus is within another human being who must take care of it when it is born so that individual has the right to take a decision.

Introduction Designer babies used to be something that was only in science fiction books, but now, scientists are very close to being able to create them. There are many unknowns with designer babies such as will they be used to create healthier babies only, or will everything be about making the “perfect” looking baby. That is just one example of many. However, what could possibly be one of the most harmful consequences of designer babies is a reduced gene pool that could be caused by the…
