Leslie Booher College Writing I 10/29/99 Abortion Abortion is the deliberate termination of a pregnancy. Most people know what abortion is that's the simple part, what gets more complicated is the moral issue surrounding it. There are some people who believe that abortion is a personal issue that should be decided by the mother and that if she decides to abort the baby that is ok. The other side of the issue is for the people like myself who feel that abortion is wrong in any situation. Is abortion killing? Yes abortion is killing a pre born child just because it is called removal doesn't mean that it is not killing. Yes the ultimate intention is removal, but it is carried out by a method that is in fact killing, such as dismembering or poisoning. Some people say "We just want to remove the child, not kill him or her, though she may die as a result." Now this is hardly a reality considering some of the methods that are used in aborting the child. The first method is D & C or Dilation and Curettage. This is performed between seven and twelve. This method utilizes a sharp curved knife. The uterus is approached though the vagina. The mouth of the womb is stretched open, and the surgeon then cut the body into tiny pieces and cuts and scrapes the placenta away from the walls of the uterus. Then one of the operating nurses has to reassemble the parts to be sure the uterus is entirely empty. Otherwise, the mother will become infected. Another method is Suction or Vacuum Aspiration used between seven and twelve weeks. A powerful suction tube is inserted into the womb. The baby is violently torn to pieces and sucked into a jar. Of course if you don't like the idea of having the baby torn to shreds there is always the Saline or Salt Poisoning method. This is generally used after the thirteenth week. A long needle is inserted through the mother's abdomen and a strong salt solution is injected directly into the amniotic fluid that surrounds the child.
