In addition, to the fact that abortions kill innocent human beings, anti-abortionists believe that they also damage the mental, as well as physical condition of the mother. Since, after an abortion a mother is more susceptible to breast cancer, and to periods of depression . In the case of congenital defects, the pro-life activists argue that such indications of a disease, do not guarantee that the child will be born into a life of suffering .

Many anti-abortionists believe that the child can actually help the mother get through the turbulent times in her life, by providing each other with a loving environment.

They believe that by outlawing abortions, women aren't allowed to practice their freedom of privacy. In a way, women are being denied their constitutional rights. Many pro-choice activists also state that abortion is justifiable, because at the time of fertilization the ensuing embryo is not yet a human being . It is not a human being, but a potential one. Therefore, its death does not constitute a murder.
