Abortion

Liberal's are pro-choice when it comes to abortion. They believe that the government shouldn't have control over a woman's body, and every woman should have the choice to do what they want with their body. If they don't want to have to put their body through the trauma having a living thing growing in their stomach, they shouldn't have to. They also bring up the point that even if abortion is illegal, women will get them anyway and have the risk of dying because illegal abortions are very dangerous and can kill you. This way, with them legal, the woman can be under a professionals care. They also bring up the cases of rape. If a woman is raped and got pregnant, she shouldn't have to carry her rapist's child. Additionally, some people are just not fit to be parents, and if they don't think they can care for the baby, they shouldn't bring one into the world. On the other side of things, conservatives are pro-life. They believe that it is morally wrong to kill a living thing, because no matter how young the fetus is, it is still a living human being. They consider abortion murder because the fetus is getting killed and has no say in the decision...they thing everyone should get a chance of life. They also think you should take responsibilities for your actions. If you're going to be having sex, you have to remember that there is a chance you'll get pregnant, and if you can't deal with the thought of having a baby, you shouldn't have sex. It's unfair to kill a human because of your decisions. They also think there are other options, and if you aren't ready to care for a child, you should give it up for adoption. Lastly, abortion can cause emotional trauma for women which can lead to suicide.

I am personally pro-choice when it comes to abortion. And just because I am pro-choice doesn't mean I necessarily would get an abortion, but I think women should have the choice. I think it's creepy that the goverment could have a say about what you put your body through. Being pregnant, even if you're going to give it up for adoption, is very hard on your body and completely life changing and I woman shouldn't be required to go through that if they don't want to. I think it is important for women to have the option especially in cases of rape. Getting raped is already tragic and horrible enough, the woman shouldn't have to carry her rapists baby. I do think abortion is sad, and its unfortunate that a human didn't get a chance to live, but like I said, I do think women should have control over their body.
