Fellow citizens, can you recall how many times you have seen a mother with her children?

Today in human society, they are very common. But have you ever thought about the couples who chose not to give birth to a baby that was on the way? Some women, who get pregnant without meaning to, choose abortion. This means that they decide to kill the fetus that’s inside of them, and that they don’t want to keep their baby that they would have to deliver. My aunt’s friend decided to abort her baby after her husband and she realized that they couldn’t afford to pay for the necessities of another life. It made me upset that they didn’t realize that there are other options, rather than killing an innocent life that hadn’t been born yet. I am speaking about the damage abortion causes, so that people will realize why it’s wrong. Abortion isn’t illegal, but that doesn’t mean that it’s right. After this, you will probably have a clearer outlook on the issue.
To abort a baby is like killing a baby. Well that’s actually what you’re doing. Although women have the power to choose whether they want abortion, they also have the power to save the unborn life. Most people think that it’s easier because it’s a fast and simple process. It may be easier than adoption services, but it also has left women later feeling guilty about the child that they never had, not because they didn’t get to have the child, but because they took the life of it. So abortion is killing a life that was never born.
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This is a quote from the Bible. Think about it. Would you want your mother to decide that she didn’t want you anymore, and choose to have you aborted, rather than have you adopted by another caring family? What if you grow up and your husband and you have a baby, and you wanted a girl, but you had a guy instead? Would you and your husband carelessly think about only yourselves, and abort the baby boy, because you wanted a girl? Every woman should put themselves in the baby’s place. I’m sure that then they would realize that what they are doing is wrong. Being that baby would be like never having a life, never being born. That’s something that’s hard for anyone to imagine. So try thinking about someone else in the situation.
Adoption is the option. Sure it takes more time, and more effort, but at least a couple could feel better that their baby is with its new family, and is living a better life. My friend was adopted, and her mother from birth first chose to have abortion over her, but the mother’s family coaxed her to give her up for adoption instead. If it wasn’t for the family’s persuasion, then I might’ve never met my friend that I have now. Adoption is better because you are choosing to let the baby have a life, and you know it’s hopefully in a good place.
These are only a few of the reasons why I think abortion shouldn’t be an option, and why there are better solutions to not keeping the baby. As you have heard, abortion is murder, and I think that it’s disrespectful of another human-being. You should think about the baby as if you were in its place. A better and safer option is adoption, because you will feel better about yourself, and it’s showing that you care. Encourage families, couples, and women that don’t want to deliver their baby, that they consider adoption, because there are other people out there who wouldn’t take a child for granted, and would do anything to have that extra addition to their family.

Well actually I would rather have been aborted but anywho.

Second, tons of things kill. We kill animals. animals kill animals. animals kill people. With the world in the state it is today(the poor economy in many places and over population) abortions are actually a good idea. I am NOT saying everyone should have them. I am just saying those who do are helping in their own way.

Now to adoption. I only know one of my parents. Now I am a pretty strong person(mentally) and I realized for a long time that there were reasons I only knew one of my parents. It didn’t mean the other parent didn’t want me. That being said most people aren’t like me. Most people I have talked to that only know or see one parent feel a good bit of resentment towards the one of the parents, and sometimes themselves. Now take those kids and put them with a foster family and see how they feel.

As for abortion being murder that depends on your definition of life. If you define life as being able to live on your own then up until birth a baby would not be alive. What about plants, are they alive?

Thank you Dr. I do feel bad for having abortions because I just don’t know. But my gut tells me that it is actually a bit more selfish to bring a person to this world the way it is. More outrage is against abortion than Priest who repeatedly molest children. I perhaps would think differently if there was an insurance that every child born would be loved and nourished…but we all know that is far from the truth. I too often find myself wishing I weren’t born and I am a sane and healthy person who feels lucky to have met the most encouraging people..and actually trys to make this life a happy one. Deeep down in my heart I pray that I am being thanked for protecting my offspring from this **** hole where judgemental people reside….and where you can’t even really be yourself anyway. So just who are you saving the life for? It would only be for me to have a mini me and bounce on my knee for a while…and when they grow up for you all to tax and tear away…which brings us full circle …it is actually more selfish to bring a person to this world. I pray that one day a person like me ..who doesn’t have much can proudly and fearlessly give birth to a child..and feel assured that it will be loved, nourished, protected etc. Because no one parent or even two can do that alone.
