A Student's Argument Against Abortion
Many disagree with woman having to carry an unwanted child because it makes the woman feels enslaved. (enslavement of woman).In November 2013, the campaign group Abortion Rights announced their first-ever student conference. It was, they explained, in response to 'many student unions reporting increased anti-choice activity on campuses'. Societies such as Oxford Students for Life, which I've been part of for the last couple of years, don't tend to think of themselves as 'anti-choice', but it's true there are more of us around. The number of young people who are opposed to abortion, or at least worried about it, is growing --this despite the usual hostility from student unions.students are getting more socially liberal, and who more dubiously equate pro-life beliefs with social conservatism.(Students against abortion: Young …show more content…
Also being as you're young the child will get to their teens years as you are still young and can parent them based on your knowledge of being not so far from your teens years yourself.(Teens and parenting)Aborting a baby while you're young can cause problems for woman because it can cause the mother to abuse drug and also during procedures there are short term, effects that are bleeding and problems with also the procedure. It consists of taking mifepristone, followed by misoprostol. The risks for this are frequent uterine pain, excessive uterine bleeding, pelvic infection, ruptured ectopic pregnancy, incomplete abortion, vomiting, diarrhea, and in extreme cases

    There is nothing more personal and private than your own body. Out of everything in this world, it is the one thing that you truly own and it is the one thing you have control over. By limiting abortion the government is quiet literally forcing itself into the most personal, private, and intimate part of your life. What you decide to do with your own body has nothing to do with the greater well being of society. Having an abortion effects one person and one person only, the person who is pregnant. Anti-choice proponents say that abortion is the murder of a child, but they refuse to acknowledge a multitude of scientific evidence that shows that a a cluster of cells is not its own being.

    The human body is amazing. It can protect one from sickness, harm. It can create beautiful art or fantastical inventions. It can surpass impossible limits. The human body is amazing. It’s amazing and it can create life. But, we, as humans, can take away that life. Humans can inhibit a person from moving forward. Humans can stop a person from feeling happiness or wholeness. And all because we, as humans, make abortion illegal. When abortion is illegal, it restricts a girl or woman from living the life she deserves. When abortion is illegal, it shows that a group of fellow humans love a forming bundle of cells more than the person standing before them.…

    Abortion by definition is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. Wrong! Abortion simply means murder. Right! Abortion is just wrong. In what way would abortion be right? “...all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” that was taken straight out of the Declaration of Independence. For those who do not know unalienable rights are, those are rights that can not be given away or taken; there for your creator by creating you gave you the right to life.…

    (3) For my readers, I plan to target the pro-choice audience who are still against minor abortion without parental consent. Some people in favor of women's choices still oppose to this highly controversial subject. I also plan to reach out to the general public, which include parents and lawmakers of the nation: the Legislatures, Senators, and Judges.

    In the first chapter Fineman poses the question “Who is a person?”. The answer seems to be something so simple, yet it is very complex. The topic deals with humans rights given in the constitution. The question has always been prominent in our society because the founding fathers wrote a constitution the did not fit all Americans. The constitution was written for the white male. African Americans and women did not have these rights until later on in history. The question also is apparent in the abortion argument, Gary Bauer a prominent figure in the Pro-life movement fights to say unborn fetuses are people. The meaning of a person and who deserve constitutional is expanding. In history it wasn't always so easy and people had to fight for their…

    It is hard to find a single definition for the word “abortion.” Dictionary.com states that an abortion is also called voluntary abortion and it is the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to end a pregnancy. However, google states that an abortion is defined as the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first twenty-eight weeks of pregnancy. On the contrary, Merriam Webster defines an abortion as a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetus. Just reading these definitions begin the argument of whether or not abortion should be legal and if it is “morally” right. Abortion has become a popular topic of discussion across politics and within churches. Although both sides have valid arguments, it is up to the woman carrying the child to decide whether she will keep the child or not. No government, nor religion should force someone into making a decision they weren’t fully supportive of.…

    Abortion: a Woman's Choice

    • 2689 Words
    • 11 Pages

    The controversial debate over abortion laws has been the focus of much political and societal attention over the past century. The term “pro-choice” outlines the belief that a women should have the right to control her own body, and in turn, the right to an induced abortion. The main concern of pro-life supporters is for the health of the unborn fetus in the woman’s womb, regarding it as an individual with rights to life, and that abortion is an extreme violation of these rights. However, this standpoint is extremely flawed. The majority of all abortions take place within the first trimester, while the fetus is attached to the mother through the placenta and umbilical cord, and is completely dependent on her health. At this stage in the pregnancy, a fetus cannot be regarded as an individual entity with rights and reasons. Reflecting the evolving perceptions and moral standards of society, the procedure involving the removal of a fertilized egg from a woman’s cervix has become a topic regarding much social stigma in Western societies. Despite the debate and controversy over this medical treatment, it is crucial that women in contemporary society have access to abortions and the right to choose, specifically because of the imminent dangers in illegal abortion clinics, instances such as rape or incest, and especially the basic human rights that the female population is entitled to. The implications of abortion laws cannot be regarded as insignificant in modern society, and the importance of their abolishment correlates directly with the emotional, physical, and psychological well being of would-be mothers.…

    First, Termination abortion is similar to killing an innocent baby into the mother's womb.” In fact, 3 out of 10 women in the U.S. have an abortion by the time they are 45 years old.”(planned parenthood) Life begins the moment of conception. Unplanned pregnancy should not prevent a child from a chance of life. Abortion is a way for people to legally terminate their children so that they have easier lives. I think if a woman or teenager is "grown" enough to have sexual intercourse, than she better learn to take responsibility of her actions. People shouldn’t take it for granted by getting rid of their unwanted mistakes. Its common sense if you’re that much against yourself getting pregnant, than don’t take the risk of having sexual intercourse. A child that you abort could have a wonderful future. It could be the next president!…

    How would it be like if you weren’t allowed to choose what happens to your future? Some women do not get the luxury of choosing for themselves due to some laws set and they do not get the option whatsoever. That should be different as women are the ones who carry the babies, not the ones who are voting against it. Even though the baby never had the chance to live life, women should have the right to choose what they want to do with their baby because it may be bad for the women herself to have to care of a baby, they may not be prepared for a baby, and we do not know their circumstances of the situation.…

    Whoever assists in the act of abortion must be sentenced. Do not let the thought of mercy corrupt your minds, for if an abortionist were granted acquittal, his detestable work will be encouraged instead of outlawed. ( Consequence ) The abortionist does not only harm one, but instead causes suffering and loss to many, even the judges who consider his case; for the judge's own grandchildren could fall to the same fate others have if the abortionist is not found guilty.

    Due to unwanted pregnancies and financial distress, many children are often mistreated and neglected which leads to the idea of abortion as the right decision. Mistreatment and neglect to the child may occur from the mother because the child resembles his or her father, which will be a continuous reminder of what happened (Meehan, Mary 1). It is also not right for a woman to have to go through full-term pregnancy with a child that has been conceived through rape (Maheen, Mary 3). Abortion is necessary for women who have fallen victim to rape or for women who are not financially able to support a family.…
