Abortion should not be used as other form of contraception

A mother kills her unborn child because it is unwanted, but she's not charged for murder. Nearly half of pregnancies among American women are unintended, and about four in 10 of these are terminated by abortion (Facts on induced). Is it because rape or incest, health problems with either the mother or the child, or just because the baby's unwanted or inconvenient at the time? This madness should be stopped because too many babies are being killed from abortion. If a women does not want a child she could always put it up for adoption, and most mother do not understand the consequences that occur from abortion. Today in almost every country, women choose abortion as another form of contraception. Abortion has been practiced for hundreds of years, and medical technology has advanced accordingly providing a safer and much more sanitary procedure for the women receiving the operation, but the result remains the same for the defenseless child. Abortion seems to be the importance of my generation because there are so many young girls getting pregnant and trying to take the easy way out by having an abortion, but that way out is sometimes more painful and more risky then actually giving birth. Abortion should not be used by any women as an alternate form of contraception. The first reason why women should not have an abortion is related to basic human values. Women need to think about their unborn babies who are not responsible for this situation. These unborn babies should have the privilege to live and grow into a normal person. Women need to be more humanitarian and less egoistic with these babies. On the other hand, the baby does not know how or why he is here. It is not necessary to kill a life; there are many other solutions to resolve this problem short of abortion.

Mankind must protect life whenever possible. The first and foremost instinct of humans is preservation of life. This begins with self-preservation and extends to all humanity through domestic bonds and realization of a like nature. "Pregnancy termination" stops the beating heart of a growing human being and is in direct contradiction to this most basic premise of human nature. It forsakes natural law and has left America as a country unable to repopulate itself without the aid of mass immigration. Abortions have affected many different people in various ways. One in every six women has had an abortion, and it has had different effects on them. Many women that have had abortions have had major psychological problems such as depression and sometimes called postabortion syndrome that comes after an abortion. Abortion can results in bladder injury that can lead to peritonitis which is an inflamed infected lining of the abdomen, bowel injury. Breast cancer women who have aborted have higher rates of breast cancer later in life. Another complication of abortion is ectopic pregnancy, which is a pregnancy that occurs outside the uterus. After an abortion, women are more likely to have one of these side effects. Effects on future pregnancies like bleeding in the first three months, less likely to have a normal delivery, and miscarriage is more likely to occur. Many people regard the right to control one's own body as a key moral right. If women are not allowed to abort an unwanted fetus they are deprived of this right. A woman should have the right to decide what she can and cannot do with her body. A woman has the right to decide whether the fetus remains in her body. Therefore, a pregnant woman has the right to abort the fetus. But for those women, who were careless and those who use abortion just because they did not end up in relationship with the father of her baby, should face more restriction on abortion. The reason is that, there is more human way to solve those kinds of situations instead of killing

those innocent babies before even their birth. Allowing abortion to each and every woman whenever they want can harm our cultural and moral values. Instead of allowing women to choose abortion a society should encourage them to give a birth and help her with her situation. After all if mother feels a burden of the baby due to any reason, adoption is the best way to solve the problem. By doing this a society can keep their moral values and also save innocent lives. Another reason why women should allowed abortion is that it has become very safe procedure. Technology advancements in todays world have raised the confidence of women and doctors across the globe. Women who has medical condition or became a victim of rape should also be allowed to have an abortion. Many people believe that fetus is just an organ of womens body. But I do not agree with them. Biology provides no basis for this view. Mother and child are two individuals, for they are genetically distinct. They are not even attached to each other at conception. It is the natures way that a new life begins from the body of women, but that does not give the right to women, whether she should keep it or kill it. There may be various circumstances where, it can be difficult for women to keep the baby for 9 months in her body and give it a birth, especially if it is unwanted. But women should feel the responsibility that they are about to decide the course of a new life.
