In the era of globalisation, we have seen or met so many irresponsible people with different behaviours in the world. To illustrate further, in Barcelona, Spain, there are some inhumane people who would just drive their vehicle into the crowds with the sole purpose of killing them. However, this incident is not the worst yet. We feel that the worst and irresponsible behaviour that a person can do is to have an abortion just because of their own selfishness and for their own sake. A person would just end the life of an unborn child when they found out that they’re pregnant and they do not want the child. First thing first, what is abortion? Abortion can be defined as a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the foetus. …show more content…
However, countries like Bulgaria, Canada, and Germany, abortions are legal in their countries. Meanwhile, in Malaysia, abortion can only be done if and only if the pregnancy brings harm to both the mother and the child health condition or if the girl who got pregnant was raped by a rapist. Mother Teresa once cited, “Any country that accepts abortions is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.” Abortion can also be divided into many categories and one of it is coat hanger abortion or self-induced abortion. As stated in an article in The New York Times written by Stack (2017), “a Tennessee woman jailed for more than a year after trying to use the coat hanger to abort her 24-week-old foetus.” The thought of it disgusts us as we look into the article. It is true that everyone has different opinions and beliefs. Some may think that it is alright to give up the life of an unborn child for their own personal sake such as monetary issues. On the other hand, we as the members of anti – abortion group believes that no matter what happens, we should never forgo a person life without giving them a chance to …show more content…
We also believe that abortion, also called foetal homicide or foeticide, will reduce people’s respect for life as people may take life too lightly as if it was like killing a chicken. Besides that, abortion should not be used as a substitute for contraception. According to a doctor in India, as cited in Zargar (2017), the only option to dismiss the pregnancy is to deliver the baby as abortion can no longer be done as the girl is 30 weeks pregnant. Couples who have a sexual intercourse should take precautionary steps if they do not wish to be tied down to having a baby and should not be irresponsible as to abort the baby once they found out they have gotten pregnant. At about 20 weeks of pregnancy, the foetus’ brain cells and nervous system has already been fully developed and the foetus is now able to feel pain sent by the nervous system to the brain. To illustrate further, imagine getting a cut from a knife, we, as a normal human being will feel pain and will immediately attend ourselves with first-aid treatment. What about the foetuses who have to endure the pain done to them during the process of abortion? Therefore, foetuses can actually feel the
Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy before birth; it causes the termination of the embryo or fetus inside the woman. There are two different types of abortion, a spontaneous abortion, which is also known as a miscarriage, and an induced abortion, where the embryo or fetus is purposely removed from the woman’s body. The topic of induced abortion has been widely debated for hundreds of years. The issue of abortion was argued way back in the time of the ancient Hebrews. In the United States, it became illegal around the mid 1800’s and not until the 1960’s was the argument for the right to abort brought back to the table.
The mere word “abortion” is disturbing by definition, from any source. Activists spare no mercy in picketing abortion clinics and taunting women seeking abortions. Protesters carry signs with pictures of aborted babies in late stages in all the graphic detail and will even commit murder to try and stop abortions from taking place. They have bombed abortion clinics, murdered staff and physicians who work at abortion clinics wit...
Abortion is the termination of a human pregnancy that does not end in birth of a child. There are two types of abortion-medical abortion and surgical abortion. Medical abortion can be done before 49 days of pregnancy by using pharmaceutical drugs. Surgical abortion takes place by using surgical instruments between 6-14 weeks of pregnancy. Both methods are safe. It depends on the size of fetus and week of pregnancy. An abortion, which is the removal of a fetus from a woman’s body, should be allowed because of women’ s freedom, life opportunities and victim protection.
To those who are unaware of exactly what an abortion is; it is when a pregnant woman has a fetus removed from her womb. This can either happen by induced labor, or by an in office procedure where the woman is put under general anesthesia and the fetus is surgically removed. This procedure usually takes place under a few hours and the patient may be sent home that day.
As defined by the Merriam- Webster dictionary, abortion is “the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by resulting in or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus as a spontaneous expulsion of a human fetus during
The words of an unborn baby are ones that almost no one ever thinks of, or hears. One of this country's most controversial topics is abortion. However, if one sees the constitutional infringement to women by the restriction of abortion; the torment to the unwanted child; and the anguish society has to sustain, then this topic would not be so debatable. Too many people do not see the effect that abortions cause. It is a very dangerous offence that affects the mother, father, the community, and most importantly, the fetus, and that is why abortion should be illegal in Canada. First, abortion is against God’s law in many Holy books such as the Bible and the Quran. Secondly, abortion does not only affect the individual, but the community as a whole, and the rights of those people are infringed on. However, abortion does nothing in the cases of rape, or women’s rights, which is the constant argument people in favour of abortion argue. And lastly, abortion should be seen for what it is, murder.
In 1973, the United States Supreme Court ruled that under the 14th Amendment, abortion is a woman’s decision. The ruling, in the case of “Roe vs. Wade”, further states a woman has a right to an abortion until “viability” which is defined as being able to live outside of the mother’s womb. Viability usually occurs around 28 weeks or 7 months. This means that a woman can abort a baby just two months before it is born. I strongly disagree with this ruling because this is killing innocent babies. Furthermore, many medical doctors confirm the fetus can feel pain as early as 18 weeks. Dr. Emidio Novembre spoke before the U.S. House Public Health, Welfare and Labor Committee. According to Dr. Novembre, “The fetus can perceive the pain, feel the pain and tries to avoid the pain. The fetus is a person and the person wants to live” (Reinhard). The fetus pain debate goes back at least as far as 1984, when President Ronald Reagan said, “Medical-science doctors confirm that when the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing” (Yarrow). This evidence proves the fetus is a person and the attempts to kil...
Abortion is a voluminous topic today all around the world. Differing viewpoints on abortion are recognized in politics, religion, and throughout the general population. There is a small amount of people who are nonchalant on the subject. Women have abortions for many different reasons and according to certain groups these reasons are either justified or not. Everyone tends to have their own articulated opinion, and many vocalize tenaciously what they believe. Pro-life individuals along with religion are sanguine that abortion is ethically and morally erroneous. Whereas those who are pro-choice say that abortion is inconsequential and the mother’s choice is more important than the fetus. Reasons to not get an abortion include risks involved in receiving an abortion. In some cases death can occur. However, there are other alternatives to abortion. For example, raising the child and adoption.
What is abortion? Abortion is the name of the process that talks about the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to terminate an existing pregnancy. This process can only be done within the first six months of the pregnancy. (Soanes)
There are many cases of mothers having an unwanted child, but soon after they are born they fall in love with their baby. Reported evidence reveals that women and men who did not want to have their child have later reported that they were satisfied as parents of those children (Burtcheall, 1983, p. 130). As a society, people have become selfish. Abortion is a prime example of society’s selfishness. Individuals put themselves first and everyone else second, this is what mothers today are doing. They are putting themselves first and their unborn children second. When parents do this they are committing murder.
In my argumentative coursework I am arguing that abortion is wrong and not to be mistaken with 'Abortion should be made illegal.' I will explain later why I have made this statement. Abortion is the termination of an unborn child in its mother's womb for up to twenty four weeks of the pregnancy or in special circumstances e.g. Disability diagnosis a termination right up until the mother goes in to labour. I think the above definition is an easier and less harsh way of saying that abortion is the murdering of a human being. There are several reasons why abortion is legal and several reasons why it shouldn?t be.
Abortion has been accepted by the United States of America ever since the monumental Roe vs. Wade case in the early 1970’s, but is still a very controversial issue. Many people are for and against abortions. Some people say that the child inside its mother’s womb deserves the opportunity to live, while others believe that a mother has the right to choose whether or not her fetus can live or die. Other advocates for abortion claim that abortion helps keep the threat of overpopulation down. They also say that in many extreme cases, it is in the best interest of the mother and the child that the fetus be aborted. Abortion helps keep the crime rate low, so it should remain legal, they also say.
Abortion by definition means the way of ending pregnancy by removing fetus from the womb before it is able to survive independently. Abortion is an extremely debatable issue because while some people are completely against it, others believe that a woman should have the right to choose. Abortion decision is like killing own child or killing an innocent human life before coming out from uterus. I will explain how a human life is being destroyed, the process in which they destroy the fetus, and how to avoid this situation all together I believe that abortion is morally impermissible.
Abortion is the killing and removing the fetus/ embryo before there is any possibilities of it surviving outside of the mother’s uterus. Abortion is the end of a pregnancy that is normally chosen by the mother, but is also known as a miscarriage. Abortions are mostly known as a surgical procedure, this is done multiple ways but all killing the fetus/ embryo. There is a variety of viewpoints on abortion such as through the religious tradition, also from seeing it as a crime to beneficial, this is an on-going debate about abortion.
It is a scientific and medical fact, based on experimental evidence, that the fetus is a living , growing, thriving human being, directing his or her own development after a whole 9 weeks into pregnancy unborn babies can feel pain, yet 48% of all abortions are done after this this point. A unborn child is killed by abortion every 22 seconds in the United States. In addition, If you are able to take the responsibility of taking the risk of getting pregnant then stand up and deal with the consequences. I believe that you shouldn’t be aloud to get a abortion pregnant because you knew that you was taking a risk of getting pregnant its your fault not the
