Why Abortion Is Wrong

Decent Essays
Imagine not having a choice in living or dying. Babies do not have a choice in their mother’s womb. If a woman decides to abort her baby, the infant cannot do anything about their life being taken aside from them. Their whole future is gone just like that. The debates are basically divided into 'Pro-Life' and 'Pro-Choice'. Pro-life supporters want abortion to be illegal and not performed anywhere. Pro-choice supporters want the choice to be up to the woman and no one else. There is no ethical way to decide between the two subjects and it's all based on what the person's moral values.
One reason why abortion is wrong is because there are many other safer solutions. Placing the baby up for adoption will afford them a better probability at a happier life rather than abortion. Also adoption is free to the mother, rather than an abortion can be real expensive. Not wanting a baby should not end by the baby dying. If it was for a selfish solution, one is sacrificing a life that many other families would love to raise as their own.

The mother is causing great risk to themselves. Many women often start regretting their choice after it is done. Abortion can also result in not being able to become pregnant in the future, many illnesses and possibly even dying. Abortion can affect both mother and child in danger and physical ways. The final reason of why abortion is wrong is that it is considered brutal murder to some. One is taking a life and killing a human being. The infant is alive and is not just some group of cells' that abortion doctors call them. One who considers abortion will be painfully putting a child to death. It is illegal to walk up to some random person on the street and kill them. Why is not illegal to kill a baby growing inside of a woman? It is wrong to think someone has the power to end a life so

    Abortion is wrong for many reasons, it takes away a sense of responsibly and consequences, it takes away an innocent life, and it is damaging to all parties involved. Each abortion committed is another life lost. Life begins at conception; it only takes seventeen days for an infant’s heart to start beating. This time span is so little that most women don’t even know they are pregnant when they have a fetus growing inside of their uterus.…

    In addition, abortion is also wrong due to the Golden Rule being right. Abortion is wrong in behalf of the simplest moral principle: the Golden Rule, "[d]o unto others what you would have the do unto you, and do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you." The Golden Rule suggests treating others the way you want to be treated, and never do anything to others you would not wish to be done to you. The reason why the Golden Rule is right and abortion is wrong is for the reason that no one wants to be killed, especially a human fetus that is actually seeking to escape although it takes time to do so. Thus,…

    Adoption is an alternative to abortion. According to Kristi Burton from the article of “Why Do More People Choose Abortion Over Adoption?” she said that there are about 2 million childless couples longing to adopt, many times regardless of the child's health issues such as Down syndrome and HIV infection. Dr. Brad Imler, President of America’s Pregnancy Helpline proves the challenge of waiting couples by revealing: ”Only 1% of the Helpline annual 40,000 clients inquires about adoption.” Adoption guarantees the unborn child’s right to life, allowing each baby to come in into the world as a blessing for another family. However, abortion reduces the number of adaptable babies.…

If you don’t want the baby, at least have it adopted instead of killing it. “While some opponents are against all abortions, others concede that the procedure should be allowed in some situations, including instances of rape and cases in which continuing a pregnancy would endanger a woman’s life.…

    In my opinion, it seems wrong to get rid of someone’s life just because the mother couldn’t/wouldn’t take care of the child. If a woman thinks she is too young or not ready to have a child, it was her fault in the first place. I think women wanting to get an abortion should at least give up their child for adoption or foster care, because they should get a chance at living their life. Looking more into the issue, I lean toward the pro-choice side a little. A woman shouldn’t be forced to keep her child, but if she believes the right thing is to not let the child enter the world, then that is completely up to her.…
