Why are you pro-choice?

Answer 1

I'm not. I can't see any reason to justify abortion.....none.....not even rape, or to "save" the mother.

And to all the people saying, "I have no right to tell you what you can or can't do, and you have no right to tell me"
If this is the case, why obey the law?

Answer 2

I have a great aunt whose son was going to be born with all of his organs on the outside, each nerve exposed. She is Catholic, so for some reason she thought God woudl provide. The child lived for 12 minutes, every nerve ending in his body exposed to the elements.

It would have been kinder to abort.

Abortion can be done out of love as much as adoption can. If a woman has an illness for which she needs medication, but the medication will hurt the baby, it is more loving to abort. If a woman has an addiction that she was practicing before realizing she was pregnant and has damaged the baby, it is more loving to abort. If a woman is in a financial situtation in which she cannot afford to have good prenatal care--adoptive parents, if chosen before birth, do not pay for food, living quarters, maternity clothes, etc--it is more loving to abort. If you know that the baby can have no chance of a good life, even if adopted, it is kinder to abort.

I don't mean women should abort because the child is going to have Downs or anything. I mean it is kinder if there is something that would be preventable in other situations, or if the child is going to be in intense physical pain for its entire life.

Also, I think it is a good thing that partial birth abortions are illegal unless the mother is at risk. Once the baby can feasibly live outside of the womb (6 months), then it should not be aborted. That would be like drowning a baby the moment it was born, which was often done in the days before abortions.

As was said earlier, pro-choice is not pro-abortion. I don't think I could ever do it, but I am glad to have the option if I need it.

Answer 3

i am pro choice because i do not think the government has any right to tell anyone what they can do with their body.The scary thing here is that if the pass a law to ban abortion its not going to do any good, ,just because something is illegal it doesent mean people will stop doing it. There will still be people who preform abortions be it will be more costly and surly dangerous and more and more people who should not have kids are going to. neither side is going to bend either so we have a huge delima here. Evan though i am pc i still respect the people who oppose(pro life) because its their right, i just wish they would show the same respect to us. i have always had trouble with the fact that pro life supporters (i am sure not all )(but a big majority) can support the people who kill the doctors and hurt people at the clinics but a 12 week old fetus has more rights and does not derisive to be killed.

Answer 4

Because accidents Do happen and some people just don't want children. Children aren't everything, especially now days when you can't even raise them the way you see fit. You have screwed up people like CPS telling you what you can and cannot do. That's what's wrong with the world today. That's why kids act the way they do...out of control! There is no discipline anymore. You can just look at your kid wrong and someone is gonna call CPS on your butt. And the kids know this, and they use it at every opportunity to get their way. Another thing....in cases where women get raped, or incest incidents, abortion is a blessing. These are my thoughts...you asked for them.

Answer 5

Because what a person does with their body is a personal decision and I believe the goverment should stay the heck out of people's lives to the greatest extent possible.

Pro-choice is not pro-abortion. I am personally against abortion as a means of birth control but can see where there are cases where they need to happen.

Answer 6

first off I think its a womens body and so she has the right to decide what she wants to do. Secondly if people are able financially or emotionally to raise children then the children end up either abused or abandoned and having to be taken care of by society multiply that times the number of unwanted kids and society ends up paying a lot of money we don't have. The earth is overpopulated to begin with and we can't even feed the people we have or provide homes or enough jobs or schools for them. How are we going to take care of these people?

Answer 7

because its non of my business what you do. Would I do it? No but do I have the right to tell you what you can do? No. If you start to do something that affects me then I have a problem. IE if you use tax money to pay for lowerclass abortions. but then again if you dont I pay for their social services so Im at a catch 22 on that one.

Joe: because Im not an anarchist. If the govt feels there should be laws and enough people didnt protest it you cant just not obey it. that would destroy the country faster than the liberal agenda already propogating.

bet the two liberals that gave me a thumbs up wish they could take it back now. lol

Answer 8

I'm not. If abortion was illegal, people would worry more about the consequences of their behavior. The morals and values of society are breaking down and this is what it leads to.

I new one girl who had 5 abortions before her 18th birthday. another girl who had an abortion at 5 months, to save her body for modeling.

I was raped and got pregnant at 17, and i wouldn't have an abortion. My son is now 13, and he is a blessing. I wouldn't trade him for the world.

Its actually really just another form of genocide. We get to excuse this behavior because it is " for compassion." I don't see any compassion in seeing mutilated babies on poster boards on the streets. Thats just what it is, legalized "genocide." Population control.

My mom almost died giving birth to my brother. He weighed 1 pound and 11 ounces when he was born. My mother didn't abort him. They both almost died. He is also a blessing.

there are rare cases, like the one above, i can see and understand that abortion might be more compassionate. That would be awful to be born with all your organs outside your body. That i can understand.

Answer 9

Pro-choice? Never been that drunk. Why should a woman have a right to do what she wants to her CHILD'S body?

Answer 10

I'm pro choice because i believe every woman needs to be able to make her own decision.

women should not be forced to be pregnant if they do not want to. pregnancy is not the best feeling. it is truly stressing on the body.

Answer 11

Because a woman should be able to make up her own mind about what she does and does not do with her body. Some people say its taking a life. Others say it isn't. I think if you're against abortion you shouldn't have one.

I think it's okay to tell people you're against abortion. I don't think it's okay to try and stop them or legislate against them. There should be fewer of them....but in the end it's all up to the woman.
