what is everybody's take on abortion?

Answer 1

yeah its murder. no one ever should do that to a baby. if you can't afford to have one then give it up for adoption but no one should kill there own baby.

Answer 2

Abortion is a decision that doesnt come easy to a lot of people, i dont believe in not taking precautions in first place but we all know accidents can happen and if the person feels the child or other children of persons in situation will suffer if pregnancy is gone through than they obviously are making the right choice. Who wants a child to suffer just because the mother was made to believe termination is wrong. On another note, not taking precaution continually and just using abortion as a way out of responsibility is wrong.

Answer 3

Safe. Legal. RARE.

I think that the waiting rooms of abortion clinics and doctors' offices where abortions are performed are full of people who say, "Abortion is wrong and shouldn't be allowed. Except for me and my situation, of course, because [insert whatever reason you like here]."

The point is that things happen, sometimes in SPITE of precautions. And that even a wanted pregnancy takes its toll on a woman's safety net, what with missing work, and being tired, and feeling sick, and having to share her skin with another person for 10 months, and needing time to recover afterward. It's tough on an academic life, a career, relationships...And it's women, unfortunately, who bear this burden. Even if you give a child up for adoption, there is still an economic disparity.

And you know what? Whether or not you know it, you probably know and like a whole lot of women who've had abortions.

So I say, whether or not you'd ever consider an abortion yourself, it's important not to close off the possibility for other women, especially since you can't possibly anticipate ever other woman's situation. Keep it safe. Keep it legal. And work like hell to keep it rare.

Answer 4

I respect woman's right and decision. We do not know what are the reasons. And that's woman's own life. Who are we to tell her what to do?
I have a friend, she was raped at 15 years old. She got pregnant. There was no adoption option at that point. But - I think that just carring that child would mentally destroy her.
I have another friend, who got pregnant, having sex for the first time, when she was 16. The same story.
Adoption is a great alternative, but we can't make decisions for someone else.

Answer 5

I could not do that, but when I was in college a friend of mine did have one. She was frantic and did not want her life, the life of a 20 year old, to be ruined. She has since suffered a great deal because of it. She was unable to have children, but has adopted 2 from a foreign country. It made her very spiritual and is one of the best people I know. Remember, the easy way is not always the answer. I believe all life is a gift from God. My friend learned that the hard way.

Answer 6

Abortion is taking a life. It is murder. Plain and simple.

Answer 7

THIS IS ONLY MY PERSONNAL OPINION SO PLEASE DON'T TAKE OFFENSE. I BELIEVE THAT AN ABORTION SHOULD ONLY TAKE PLACE IF THERE WAS A RAPE, OR INCEST. IF YOU HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX AND BECOME PREGNANT, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE. IF YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO BE HAVING SEX UNPROTECTED THEN YOUR RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO RAISE A CHILD. IF YOU FEEL YOU ARE NOT READY TO RAISE A CHILD THOUGH, THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS. ADOPTION IS A WONDERFUL THING. ESPECIALLY AN OPEN ADOPTION SO YOU CAN SEE YOUR CHILD GROW, AND THEY KNOW WHO YOU ARE. I HOPE THAT THIS IS HELPFUL.

Answer 8

it's a woman's choice to do whatever she wants like I told someone else people shouldn't judge because they never know what postion they may find theirselves in.

Answer 9

its horrible why kill something that cant even breath on its own thats not a good thing to do if you dont want it give it away to someone that wants it.

Answer 10

i think that it is only appropriate in the case of rape......or if the person is under 16
