Against Planned Parenthood
I agree with you, I am also against abortions. Yet I think that clinics such as Planned Parenthood are always labeled as abortion clinics when in reality they also help with many other reproductive issues. I have heard horrible stories about Planned Parenthood but at the same time I know of many people that got help from them in getting regular check ups and such things that could potentially save their life. I wouldn't exactly consider working for Planned Parenthood but in some ways I am not completely against it.

    Planned Parenthood has been in the makings since 1916. The organization started out as a health clinic that offered free birth control to women. It continued to progress over the years until 1942 the organization, which was called Little Rock Birth Control Clinic at the time, changed to Planned Parenthood. The organization still goes by this name to this day. Although the organization offers much more than just free birth control to women. In fact, in recent times the organization has become the center of attention for many groups of people because of one of their most popular services; abortion. Most people see abortion as an equivalent to murder. Many people claim that if a woman did not want to have a baby she should not have participated…

    An evaluation plan, at a minimum should assess the following goals: 1) The program objective in measurable terms, 2) Key indicators of success, 3) Outline data collection and analysis activities and 4) A timeline to monitor the success of the program on an ongoing basis (Johnson & Crean, 2008, p. 3).

    The pro-life view is characterized by “all men are created equal.” My personal view is that equal rights should be available to everyone regardless of sex, race, preference, age, etc. Throughout history there have been many conflicts of significance to women and blacks concerning the fight for equal rights; pro-life supporters say “why not babies too?” They also believe “there are no sub-humans.” Personally, I agree that there are no sub-humans. There are humans and not humans. I do not believe fetuses in a vegetative state, similar to a piece of tissue, are not humans because they are not conscious. Just because something has the potential of becoming a human in the future does not make it a human now (Planned Parenthood).…

    Planned Parenthood Summary

    Planned Parenthood itself isn’t necessarily the problem, but the people that oppose it. Christian Policy Analysist, Sarah Torre, has many things to say on the issue of Planned Parenthood, although she doesn’t necessarily try to see it from a side other than hers. While reflecting upon rumors about Planned Parenthood selling tissue and body parts of unborn babies, Torre presents that government funding needs to be cut entirely from the organization. She supports her argument by making claims such as Planned Parenthood has enough money, and that there are enough other places for women to get the care and services provided there. Being the leading abortion provider in the US is the authors top reason, however, for prompting her “defund Planned Parenthood” campaign, even though abortions only make up about 3% of all services provided. She claims it is immoral for taxpayers, especially those who are against abortion, to be required to pay for an affiliation that provides the very thing they are so much against. The fact seems to be forgotten that although not everybody believes that healthcare, such as programs provided by the Affordable Care Act, are not approved or liked by everyone. Even so, everybody has to pay taxes that fund these programs, and really how is it different from taxpayers money going to Planned Parenthood? Although she is a woman, Torre seems to have forgotten the battles waged in order for women to have free reign of their own bodies, including the right to choose whether or not they should abort a baby that is unwanted. American’s in general need to realize that women should not be dictated by men, or other women for that matter, no matter where they are coming from. Opinions are not always wanted, and just because someone believes something does not make it right for them to force their beliefs onto other people. Americans need to have…

    Although Planned Parenthood will never say so directly, they often do not tell patients all necessary information. Women are often pushed into the procedure without being provided information on the health risks that can come with abortion. As well, as that they are terminating a human life (SOURCE 3). Planned Parenthood will never admit to terminating another person’s life, because they overlook that a fetus is living. However, add something about fetus being alive. A mother terminating her own child, the exact opposite of how a mother should act (SOURCE 3). It is a mother’s instinct to protect and take care of her child. By aborting the child, the mother is doing the opposite. Add something about PP persuading. The Federal Government should not be funding and supporting a company that persuades mothers to deny their motherly instinct and terminate their child’s…

    Imagine that it takes a couple months instead of a couple days to get a cancer screening or the mammogram required for a certain age range. A man or woman fears that the doctor’s office will not accept their insurance and can’t pay the medical bill. A teen needs an STD test because he or she is unaware of the harms in sex. A pregnant woman needs a place to feel safe and not judged by her personal choices. Planned Parenthood gives each of these people what they need and provides the need in an efficient and timely manner. The United States Senate has been recently debating on whether or not Planned Parenthood should be funded based their issues on one subject, abortion and the research connected to abortion. Planned Parenthood should be funded by the government because it does not just provide abortions, but also other health options such as affordable disease testing, relationship development, and gender identification for women, men, and teenagers.…

    For my research and message planning assignment, I chose to look further into Planned Parenthood as a non-profit organization. Planned Parenthood is an organization that has been around for over 100 years, as it was founded in October of 1916. Some of the many resources that are offered at these facilities are free or cheap access to women’s reproductive health- including papsmears, mammograms, and STD checks. Other services offered are access to abortion and contraception for all women; this is where the negative perception comes into play. It’s been a long and ongoing battle with separation of church and state, but somehow the the morality issues still play such a damaging role in the perception of what Planned Parenthood is really providing.…

    When people think of reproductive health care centers their mind automatically jumps to the name Planned Parenthood. Since its founding in 1916 by Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood has amounted to a number of people rallying both for and against them. The fight for Planned Parenthood has never completely been resolved, and even now the issue of federally- funding Planned Parenthood is an issue discussed at large when deciding who to elect to represent our country for the next four to eight years. People advocating for the funding of Planned Parenthood by the federal government are doing something that is rightfully so. It should not be an issue whether or not Planned Parenthood should be funded or not. The question that asks whether it should…

    Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization founded by Margaret Sanger in 1916. Planned Parenthood began as the first birth control clinic in America (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). It began in Brooklyn, New York, and it was opened with Sanger, her sister, and a friend (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Sanger’s original missions for Planned Parenthood were, providing contraception and other health services to women and men, funding research on birth control and educating specialists and the public about the results, and advancing access to family planning in the United States and around the world (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Planned Parenthood has always seen people opposing it, from the very beginning when police raided the clinic, and Sanger, her sister and her friend were arrested, to now with Republicans and “pro-life” activists trying to defund and bring an end to the organization (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Planned Parenthood is not the monster that republicans and “pro-life” activists make it out to be, contrary to what they may think…

    Planned Parenthood has been in the news lately regarding controversial abortions, procedures of the tissues that result from abortions. Conservatives of the House of Representatives are trying again to stop federal assistances to Planned Parenthood. Oppositional views from both sides could lead to shutting down the government; because democrats would veemingly oppose any bill defunding the organization. This could result in Republicans loosing support in the 2016 elections, but many conservatives say that it’s a risk and fight worth taking on. However, there is a lot of criticism on why GOP decides now that they should try again to defund Planned Parenthood. They argue that the leaked videos this past summer and evaluation of negotiation and completing the new budget puts the conservatives in a spot to argue the money that is set aside for planned parenthood be given to another organization more deserving of the it.…

    Back in the 1970’s people rebuked the idea of Planned Parenthood. When they thought of it, the thought of abortion was directly connected. In all actuality, you would be surprised at how wrong they are. It is said that above 90 percent of the institutions population have terminated pregnancies, but really only three percent of the entire amount of women getting assistance partake in the procedure. Although, only three percent of the nation’s babies are aborted by Planned Parenthood, pro-life supporters still believe that is enough to terminate the program. To follow through with such a request would not only not decrease the abortion rate but it will also lead these women into the back alleys and liquor sanitized, home-made surgical tools. To rid the program is only asking to endanger hundreds of lives, especially the new lives brought into the world unwanted. The newborn who reminds her mother of the rape she experienced every single time she looks into her little eyes is an injustice…

    On top of top of this, the same people who consistently keep affordable healthcare out of reach also consistently try to defund Planned parenthood for their role in providing abortions, or at least that is the reason they give. Unsurprisingly, abortion makes up a miniscule part of what Planned Parenthood does, a mere three percent in fact. However, conservative traditionalists need a red herring to disguise their desire to oppress women, even when it’s happening subconsciously. Even if one considers the woes of the vagina to be outside the realm of normal healthcare, it can be argued that women are ignored for “regular” ailments too. An article in Boston University’s BU Today2 discusses the way medical research in particular often ignores women.…

    Support Abortion

    I don't support abortion, simply because so many people use it to avoid taking responsibility for their actions. In my opinion, if you're mature enough to be having sex, you should be mature enough to either be safe or take responsibility if a slip-up happens. I do think that abortions should be available for victims of rape or abuse, but only after they have talked to a psychologist or psychiatrist and made sure they are making the right decision.…
