Should Abortion Be Legal?

For a very long time abortion has been a very belated topic to talk about . people say that

abortion should be legal while others say it would not . the reason why people say that abortion

should be legal is because if you are a young parent and cant take care of the baby you have the

right to have a abortion but others say that abortion should be not legal because you are killing a

kid. People should take responsibility for the actions that cause which means that people should

not abort because they can't take care of their problem . the baby should not punished for the

moms mistakes . the better way of not killing a baby is to give the baby to a mom that cant have

her own. Woman Who abort commit suicide.

The mom is killing a kid.​This means the you are killing the baby and the baby can't do

nothing because there in the mom .​Maureen Condic, PhD, Associate Professor of Neurobiology

and Anatomy and Adjunct Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Utah School of

Medicine, explains that the "most primitive response to pain, the spinal reflex," is developed by

eight weeks gestation, and adds that "There is universal agreement that pain is detected by the

fetus in the first trimester." According to Kanwaljeet J. S. Anand, MBBS, DPhil, Professor of

Pediatrics, Anesthesiology and Neurobiology at the University of at the University of Tennessee

Health Science Center, "If the fetus is beyond 20 weeks of gestation, I would assume that there

will be pain caused to the fetus. And I believe it will be severe and excruciating pain." Bernard

N. Nathanson, MD, the late abortion doctor who renounced his earlier work and became a

pro-life activist, stated that when an abortion is performed on a 12-week-old fetus, "We see [in

an ultrasound image] the child’s mouth open in a silent scream... This is the silent scream of a

child threatened imminently with extinction." this evidence supports my argument because the

baby feels pain when a mom gets a abortion.

The better way of not killing a baby is to give the baby to a mom that cant have her

own.​This says that instead of aborting the baby you can give it to a mom who can't

conceive.​”​Instead of having the option to abort, women should give their unwanted babies to

people who cannot conceive”​ ( ​childwelfare.gov, Feb. 2011). A mom that is willing to kill a baby

is willing to give it up for adoption.

Woman Who abort commit suicide.​"Young adult women who undergo... abortion may be

at increased risk for subsequent depression"(​"The Course of Mental Health after Miscarriage and 

Induced Abortion).​ woman who abort will feel bad so they have a risk of depression for the rest

of their lives

People might say that abortion is the right of the woman . the woman has the right to to

make the decision because it is there body.this reaction is irrelevant because there are

complications with abortion, it is not the woman's decision it is the man's too make the decision

too , and did the woman want to get pregnant in the first place.some evidence is abortion can

cause some people to die due to depression.

 ​In conclusion this issue should be important because women are dying due to

depression , kids are dying to so it is discretion the population. Abortion should be illegal

because you will have that regret that you will have for the rest of your life. ​ the baby should not

punished for the moms mistakes . the better way of not killing a baby is to give the baby to a

mom that cant have her own. Woman Who abort commit suicide. Abortion should not be legal
