Argumentative Essay On Abortion

     The topic of abortion has been a highly debated and highly controversial issue before America was even founded. There are many aspects of the debate and many angles that can be taken. In order to understand, and to form an opinion on the topic of abortion a person must be informed about the History of abortion, the methods of abortion performed today, the potential side affects of abortion, and the two different and equally debatable sides that are taken today. These are all very important issues to be informed about

Having the choice of abortion is telling women that they do not have to be responsible for their actions. The woman knows that no matter if they took all the precautions to not become pregnant, there still are chances of it happening. Abortion is just an immoral way for women to coward away from responsibility. A Census Bureau study noticed “that women who have their first child out of wedlock get less education and are more likely to be unemployed and single - even many years later - compared with other women” (Harris). Women need to realize that they made the choice of bringing a baby into their lives even if they unknowingly did. It does not matter if it is inconvenient for the woman or it would set the woman back in life. The woman needs to grow up and take care of the baby like an adult

People who oppose abortion who believe women have abortions for their own convenience belittle the trauma women go through when making this decision. Motherhood cannot be undervalued. It is a lifelong responsibility. The baby has never asked to be born so the responsibility lies with the women carrying it, to provide it with a decent life. If for whatever reason the baby is not welcome, the woman has the right to terminate the

Abortion is one of the most socially, politically, and culturally controversial topics of the 21st century, ultimately affecting women of all ages. According to Merriam Webster Dictionary, abortion is defined as the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo (Merriam Webster.1). The United States Supreme Court ratified the legalization of abortion in an effort to make the procedure safer; this was done through the Roe v Wade decision of 1973. In the United States more than a thousand abortions take place every day, and although legal, public opinion remains at a standstill as to whether or not abortion is ethical. In the midst of the controversy, two groups emerged. These two groups are referred to as pro-choice and pro-life. Pro-life supporters claim that the life of a baby begins at conception, therefore the act of abortion is equivalent to murder. Pro-choice supporters, on the other hand, believe that a woman has the right to choose what she does with her body. In the end, one must understand the implications of abortion in order to answer the question, is abortion ethically and legally moral?

Abortion has been a very controversial issue in the United States for the past several decades. Many people think that is it morally wrong. To say that something is morally wrong is an opinion. Since everyone’s opinions are different on this topic there have been many court cases and protests against abortion. However there are a lot of people out there that believe that abortion is a rightful decision. My personal opinion on the abortion controversy is that every woman should have the choice on whether or not they are ready or are capable of raising a baby. Although there are many different choices one can make with regard to whether or not they are ready to raise a child, like adoption, it is still ultimately the woman’s decision on what they want to do. Carrying a child is a very stressful and sometimes painful process. There are a lot of financial decisions, health decisions, and future decisions that have to be carefully thought out before becoming a parent. Parenthood is a life-altering step one must take in life, and abortion is one way that a women can postpone or avoid changing their life in a very extreme way.

Firstly, abortion kills the innocent lives of babies. In America, about 1.21 million abortions occur a year (National center of health). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 3,952,841 babies are born a year. The life of every unborn baby is in jeopardy, he or she either gets the opportunity to live or he or she’s life ends. “There is no ethical defense for killing someone who is innocent, no matter how great the inconvenience to another person may be”. (Wayne Wilkins) People believe that aborting a baby won’t harm or cause pain to the unborn fetus; it’s the destruction of a conception. The power to end one’s life should be in no one’s hands.

To begin with, abortions should be acceptable because it is a woman 's right and her personal decision. All women have the equal right to decide if they want to carry their child or have an abortion. This is called freedom of choice. It is no one else 's result to choose for her. However, people have deliberated abortion to be murder simply because there is a life being taken (www.debate.org). In reference to www.debate.org, abortion is taking the life an individual. That has been said because people have argued that once an egg has been conceived, it is a living cell that grows into a human being. Not only has murder been a focus in this matter but also religion has been

How would you feel, if I told you that your mother wanted to have an abortion when you were a fetus just because she didn’t want to raise you, didn’t have the time for you, or the money. Or didn’t want the responsibility that came with having a child. What if I told you that half of the women that get pregnant in the U.S. today have abortions, and their main reason is most likely because it might interfere with their work, education, or relationships. Which is selfish. If you think about it, they think that the the baby inside them means nothing. They don’t deserve to live a happy life or a life at all. Also they think it’s their body, but it’s not it’s the baby's body too. This controversial topic has been an a highly debated argument for many years, whether it’s ethical to kill your unborn child or or not! Also the fact that the rate is growing tremendously. Abortions first started in the 1820s. At that time women knew that they were and are killing their fetus or embryo. Some women are not ready to become parents to take the responsibly. Personally, I think that having an abortion is morally wrong because you are killing an unborn fetus or embryo, while it is barely starting to develop.

Today, people have the right to voice their thoughts regarding a topic, rather they’re different or alike, creating a new philosophy about it, or supporting the traditional belief. In regards to the topic, Abortion has been a subject of controversial matters. Some believing they have the right to do such an act while others would absolutely disagree. Before supporting such an act or not, we typically take into consideration the goods and bads of the action first. While taking a life might be one of the more foreseeable cons of the act, there are good outcomes as-well. Such as, not having said child endure hardship during their life. That child being the difference between a mother having the means to support herself or not. Lastly, that child doesn 't have to suffer more due to the condition of that unprepared parent. No child should be brought into this world only to live a short life and meet the same fate as they would have if they have been aborted. On the other hand, I side with those who agree. Not to be referred to as a “baby killer” but as someone who has an idea of the consequences of copulation, rather it 's intended or in some cases unintended.

Abortion has been used as a contraception for women for years who could not deal with the consequences of their actions. Many ignore the negative consequences that can come with abortion. Abortion devalues human life while causing mental and physical health issues to women. Most abortions are due to inconveniences despite the consequences many women go through. Abortion is not worth putting your health at risk. Many women need to realize that you are not only affecting one life, but you are also putting your life at risk

Abortion has been one of the most popular and argumentative topics that has still yet to be settled. Ultimately the question we can ask when trying to solve this issue is whether or not pregnant women should have the right to kill an unborn baby. Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy before birth takes place and is a moral wrong. Can we as a society call ourselves human if we allow the deaths of unborn babies to take place? Those who take the side of pro-choice or as also known as pro-abortion often use statements concerning life, humanity, human rights and freedom to support their claims. I believe abortion should be illegal because we as a society must protect the human lives that are in danger whether or not they are in their first

Abortion shouldn’t be something that someone should have to think about. It should be a no brainer answer to the child’s parents. One should not ever have to make the decision of if they want a child to live or not to live. Society has misjudged this cruel topic, overthought this cruel topic, and blown this cruel topic out of proportion. No child should have to be so called, “murdered” for the lack of responsibility of his or her parents. The bible states abortion is murder, and that murder is wrong, and illegal. Abortion should be illegal due to the negative impacts of killing a human being.

There are roughly 3,000 abortions every day and 1.21 million abortions performed in the United States every year. People can love kids, they can think babies are amazing, but they can also be in favor of a woman deciding what is best for her life and her body. A woman has the right to her own body; no one else can tell her what to do with it. No one else can tell her what is wrong or right with what she does. That is the one thing she has control of: her own body. The most brought up argument against abortion is: "you are killing a baby". What is being eliminated is not a baby. Instead, an abortion in the first trimester is getting rid of a group of cells and tissue from the uterus.

Abortion has always been an incredibly controversial topic. It has been one of the most widely discussed issues in the American culture for decades. Abortion is a discussion of human interaction, in which emotions, ethics, and law all come together. In many cases, people on both sides of the argument have valid points and take moral positions. A pro-choice position would assert that the decision to terminate a pregnancy lies the mother and that the government has no right to interfere or step in and make that decision. On the other hand, the position of pro-life advocates argue that life begins at the moment of conception. They believe that because the embryo or fetus is a human life and that one has no moral right to abort it. This theory argues that this human has no power or say in the matter and is rendered helpless from advocating for itself. Although abortion is a morally and emotionally charged issues, it is ultimately protected under the 14th amendment. The most common reasons for abortion include but are not limited to, teen pregnancy, rape, and health issues.

Abortion is defined as the intentional termination of a human pregnancy. An abortion is often done so that the birth of a child doesn’t happen. Some say abortion is wrong and sinful while others say it’s a good idea since it won’t bring an unwanted child into the world. Abortion is also considered morally wrong since its killing a growing baby or fetus as it is often referred as. Abortion can also be seen as murder since the process of abortion kills the baby. Some argue that it should be the woman’s decision but what about the baby? Doesn’t he/she get the right to live? It might not be moral but is it legal to have an abortion procedure in the U.S? Does the government stand by this heinous act? Now, when women make these kind of decisions do they look at what it could possibly do to their health, how is it affected? Don’t they feel any remorse for this horrible deed? How can people continue living a perfectly normal life knowing that they agreed to kill a defenseless baby? Not all the reasons to get and abortion are wrong some might be life threatening cases like the child might not make it to birth or the mother is not strong enough and both lives are at risk. Possibly the woman got raped and doesn’t want the baby to be the constant reminder of that incident. But is that a good enough reason to take someone’s life? For the foreseeable future abortion will be an extremely hot topic for discussion.
