Abortion
How would you feel if someone had the final say in whether or not you could live or die? Imagine not having any say in whether or not you are allowed to have a life. Now you can imagine how a baby feels since they do not have a choice in their mother’s womb. If a woman decides to abort her baby, the baby cannot do anything about their life being forcibly taken away from them. Their whole future is demolished in a single instant before it even begins.

Dr. Brad Imler, President of America’s Pregnancy Helpline, confirms the challenge of waiting couples by stating: Only 1% of the Helpline’s annual 40,000 clients inquires about adoption” (Brown).

The solution for a baby should not be death, there are other ways to (for lack of a better term) get rid of the unborn child.

According a member of the Right to Life Committee: "Sixty five percent of women who abort suffer symptoms of post-traumatic stress syndrome after undergoing the procedure” ( (Gómez-Lavín). Many women around the world end up regretting the choice after deciding to take it, therefore making it a controversial issue. Abortion can also result into not being able to get pregnant in the
