Welcome to America: land of opportunity and most importantly, free. Well, unless you're a young, possibly teenage girl seeking birth control. We have people with extreme morals and religious beliefs making those decisions for you! Let us not forget the people saying sex education is tainting our youth's brains, yet wonder why they lack the basic knowledge on STDs. Remember, "Choice is an essence of personal freedom," (Brooks, ...About Life Control). Therefore leading to the point that birth control should be complimentary to all. Giving girls of all ages birth control is about handing them something essential: life control. It should ultimately be up to the girl on how she wants to control her life. We shouldn't have people interfere with these girls' options just because of morals or religious beliefs. Little Amanda seeking out birth control in order to protect herself and controlling her life should not have to fret because Carole from the Church says it goes against her beliefs. The talk of complementary birth control has, "...generated numerous lawsuits because so many Americans have strong religious and moral objections," (Turner, ...Sex Without Consequence). I do respect …show more content…
The obvious one being that we, " [have] brought teen pregnancies and abortions to a historic low," (Gilliam, ...Only the Start). However, this was only achievable on behalf of high-quality health care. With nurses with proper training being able to guide these young girls, we're able to achieve the same results in the future. Further benefits would be shrinking the Welfare percentage. Welfare is a topic people definitely go ballistic over. Welfare is especially popular for young moms or teen moms since they cannot afford to live without it. Here's the perfect opportunity for America to cut those rates. If you're as a matter of fact actually are serious about cutting those rates, free contraception is a good place to
The people who do not approve of specific forms of birth control are mainly deeply religious individuals. Their argument is that it does not agree with their philosophical concepts, the main one being, having sexual intercourse prior to the couple being married. Not everyone has the same beliefs plus Americans are protected by the first amendment of the constitution making those who oppose this not have much of an argument to try and make a law stating that it is illegal to use certain forms of birth control. In this book nobody is against any sort of birth control used. This is undoubtedly due to the fact that they are all high on soma and do not know much different. The citizens of the World State are conditioned to look down upon those who become pregnant as well as exclude these particular individuals from their lives in order to chide
If you and your significant other had a child, would you want to be there to not only support your partner, but to see your child’s first milestones in real life? Of course you would! The problem is most parents miss crucial parts of their child’s life because of the lack of paid maternity and paternity leave in the United States. New families, across the nation, should be allowed a minimum six months of paid maternity leave.
The question of whether or not public schools must offer birth control methods to teenagers remains controversial. There are those who are against birth control being provided in public schools and those who are against it. This paper will describe two issues that prove that contraception should indeed be provided within public schools. The first reason is that most Americans support the idea that public schools must provide birth control methods to students. This is according to results obtained from several opinion polls.
The birth control pill was made to help women from having kids (while on the pill) because back in the 1960’s married women went through multiple pregnancies and this took quite a toll on their physical and mental health. It wasn’t just to control the births of American women, but also the women in foreign third world countries, seeing as they were already beginning to be overpopulated and living mostly in poverty. According to A Critique of the Sexual Revolution:
Just imagine a 17 year old girl sitting on her bathroom floor. She is staring at this plastic stick that is now going to determine her choices for the rest of her life. The little plus sign causes her stomach to tense up and her throat to choke up. Who will help her? Who will pay for the food her and her baby need? Who is the father? Will she finish high-school and go to college? How will her parents react? This young girl has a choice that will have major impact on her life no matter what she decides. What if she was able to decide when and how she wanted these decisions/questions to come up? That young girl isn’t the only girl thinking about this choice; actually thousands of girls are. The United States has the highest teenage
First of I just want to take this time to congratulate you on meeting the requirement of the paper, it was an honor to read about your topic on Birth Control. From reading the paper I can honestly see the hard work you put into it. While reading your paper I notice the use of standard vocabulary words, I found this to be a great idea, in my view it help to persuade readers on the level of text they’re reading, but in other words the paper is not graded on how much vocabulary words you can come up with, I’m not saying using standard vocabulary is a horrible thing but instead focusing your paper on vocabulary words that might get your reader confused and have them searching the web for definition, I honestly advice since this is a argumentative
What is life? No one seems able to agree, and there is no side in between. Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, as well as one of the most seemingly unsolvable controversies. Pro-life advocates claim that abortion equates to full-on murder, while pro-choice advocates claim that women have the right to make decisions about their own bodies. With the right to an abortion under attack more and more, even clinics finding themselves under actual gunfire, abortion becomes a bigger debate topic than ever. A woman is a person more than the fetus inside of her, and she deserves to make whatever choice she wishes about her own body. Women should have safe, easy access to abortion in all cases.
People will at least once, probably more, have to deal with insurance companies. For many, this typically results in a long, and heated struggle of figuring out what is covered, and what is not. It is also usually accompanied by negotiating something to be covered, and giving justification of why it should. Almost anyone will agree that handling insurance companies is as bad as pulling teeth. This is said to be true even when the medical diagnoses are concrete in the social construct of society. Many insurances will not cover things as dyer as cancer. If this is so commonly believed, imagine how it is for the illness that are not concrete; illnesses such as bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and schizophrenia. All phrases that are commonly heard in media, but widely accepted as untrue illnesses, or educated
The United States of America is supposed to be the greatest nation on earth. We are supposed to celebrate freedom and praise equality. We are all supposed to have the opportunity to live a nice, long, wonderful life.There are quite a few problems that make the above difficult, to say the least.
Robert Creamer. "Protecting Access to Birth Control Does Not Violate Religious Freedom." Current Controversies: Politics and Religion. Ed. Debra A. Miller. Detroit: Greenhaven Press, 2013. Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center. Gale. Lee’s Summit High School. 31 Oct. 2013
Non-religious and religious groups both support contraception for a number of good reasons one of the arguments they use in favor of contraception is that in the USA, about 56 percent of women between 16 to 45 years old practice birth control. When birth control is not used about 85/86 percent of sexually active parents experience a pregnancy. Contraception clearly prevents unwanted pregnancies, which if the woman has any medical ailments could result in death of the mother or of the child or both.
Female contraception was first defined in the late 1800’s as the deliberate prevention of conception or impregnation by various techniques, drugs, or devices. The access of female contraception for women has been a subject of debate for thousands of years. Women should have access to contraception because of the health benefits it provides not only physically, but mentally. The use of female contraception supports gender equality, and lastly, the use of contraception provides new arguments against an aging Catholic church.

Did you know that only ONE percent of women that get abortions are rape victims? Which means the other women who decides to get an abortion just wants to take the easy way out. People will say it is murder, others will object and say it is just a fetus. Millions of babies die everyday without even being born because of abortion. Abortion destroys the lives of helpless people all around the world and is legal in some countries. A Lot of people take advantage of abortion and chooses to abuse it and use it as a birth control method. Abortion should be illegal everywhere, unless a life threatening matter occurs.There have been an increasing number of abortion cases throughout the world.
Far and away the most common method of birth control today is the birth control pill. The pill is relatively easy to obtain through Planned Parenthood clinics, the price is not unreasonable, and the pill has an excellent record of success in pregnancy prevention. However, the pill places all the burden of birth control on women, and although it is usually the women who have the most to lose in unwanted pregnancy, shouldn't [GR#1] men take some of the responsibility for birth control, too? Plus, the pill is something that users must remember to take every day, even if they do not engage in sex for months or years. The pill may have the added advantages of making menstrual cycles more regular, and decreasing the sometimes painful intensity of a woman's periods, but as far as being purely a method of birth control, the pill has drawbacks, too. Besides being something that the user must remember to take each and every day regardless of the frequency of sexual activity, being on the pill involves visits to the doctor's office or to Planned Parenthood with annual or even more frequent exams and tests that may be unpleasant and cost more money.
