Abortion


            
             Abortion has always been a controversial subject among everybody whether they are involved directly or indirectly, or whether they are for it or against it. It is nearly impossible to find someone who doesn't have an opinion about abortion. Both those who favor or oppose an abortion make good arguments to defend their beliefs and views. .
             Personally I think every last person is entitled to his or her own opinions, beliefs, thoughts, and rights. And yes, women have rights too, and denying women the right to choose an abortion in the early stages is denying her rights as a US citizen and it is also discriminating against her. I think that abortion should be restricted to the first 20 weeks that is when most of the test can be taken to determine the health of the fetus. Anything after that would be wrong since the fetus can very well live outside the mother's womb. .
             Abortion should definitely not be used as a primary birth control though. It should be determined based on the circumstances of the pregnancy. A woman should have the choice to have an abortion if she is raped, impregnated by a deranged man or by incest. It would be unfair to force a rape victim to bear an unwanted baby and give up all the dreams she ever had and be reminded of that rape for the rest of her life. But I also believe that there should be limits to how many abortions, if a woman has had 10 abortions, she is taking advantage of this opportunity. In "We Do Abortions Here" written by Sallie Tisdale, she says " Every day I take calls for women who are annoyed that we cannot see them, cannot do there abortions today, this morning, now. They argue the price, demand we stay after hours to accommodate their jobs or class schedule. Abortion is so routine that one expects it to be like a manicure: quick, cheap, and painless." To me, this is an example of when abortions have gotten out of hand.
             I also think a woman's life should not be sacrificed or put at risk, a woman should be able to abort if there is any complications or a threat to her life and a threat to the baby's life.
