If the mother is unable to care for her child, whatever the circumstance, giving the baby up for adoption after its birth. But to see the baby in the mothers’ arms could change her decision to give it away. Keeping the baby could be a mistake when they would have trouble looking after and caring for it.
Abortion should be legal in case the mothers’ life is at risk. If giving birth to the baby would kill the mother, then having an abortion is the best solution. This especially true if the mother already has children because the loss of their mother would be awful. A motherless baby would also be sad. If a pregnant woman is diagnosed with cancer, she can wait until she has given birth before she starts the treatment. This decision is often swung by how late in the pregnancy it is. An eight-month wait could make the cancer incurable.
‘Abortion Is Murder.’ A typical slogan found in anti-abortion demos. The people who hold these banners believe that the foetus or unborn baby is a human. They believe life begins at conception so abortion is killing a baby. Each unborn baby’s life you take is a person, killing it without asking. Euthanasia is banned in the United Kingdom at present, but in that process the person must agree to be injected with a high dose of morphine that will kill you. The family and two doctors also must agree. But in abortion the mother and two doctors must agree. So if abortion is legal, why shouldn’t euthanasia?
In the bible, it says life is Gods gift. In Jesus’ time, being unable to have children was seen as a curse from God. So if a baby is Gods gift, should we really be destroying it?
Each human being is different, there is no genetic pattern the same on this earth, or ever will be (unless cloned). Aborting a foetus is taking an original life, which will never be again. An original life that never asked to be created, but since they were created, would probably like to live. Aborting because we think they won’t have a good life is no excuse for use to delete them from existence. Everyone should be given an equal chance to prove him or herself in life.
I personally think that abortion is justified, in the right circumstances. Exploiting abortion is wrong. But if they right and safe precautionary measures are taken, and adhered to, then abortion could stop a lot of sadness, traumatism and unwanted babies.
