Abortion is defined as the removal of an embryo or fetus from the womb in order to end a pregnancy. When a woman aborts a fetus, she is taken an innocent child out of this world. She is eliminating the chance for that child to use his/her god given gift to make the world a better place. She is taken away the opportunity for the child to grow and love.
As a person who holds very strong opinions on various subject matters and is willing to dismiss another person view based on my own, I know that many women will rather not have a child because they intent to live the lifestyle that they lived before they got pregnant. The suggestion I have for these women is to have the child and give the baby up for adoption and foster care. Instead of aborting the child, the child can be placed with a family that is devoted to love and care for that child.
Despite the fact that the American Foster Care System is not the best place for a child, it is an option. I have friends who have been raised in the foster care system in America who admits that growing up in foster care has been a blessing in disguise. They revealed to me that through their circumstances, they were able to acquire certain life skills that I have not personally gained as of yet. They are strong, hardworking, ambitious and affectionate. When my friends walk in a room, their verbal and body language says that they are not there to play but to use their intelligence as a way to improve themselves and their surroundings. These skills I have not yet found in anyone else.
As I look around on the faces of my classmates, I can sense the approval for abortion within several of them. I know that some of them want to ask “what if the mother cannot support a child at this moment?” People that ask this question certainly doesn't see the cup half full but half empty. My grandfather always said, “ there is always a way to solve a problem, it's the method that you use that makes the solution okay or not.” With that being said, I would like to propose certain methods as a way for a woman to support her child.
A woman can support her child through government-assisted programs, child support payments and grants that are designated for single mothers. If the methods that I've suggested are not enough, there are non-profit programs that pay for food, rent, and utility. The good thing about these programs is that when the woman is able to provide for her child/children, she doesn't have to pay nothing in return.
Many government officials agree that birth begins at conception but declare the right to a woman to do whatever she chooses to do with her body as a way not to interfere with the controversy behind abortion. If a man kills another man, he goes to jail for murder. If a woman aborts an innocent child, she gets over it and moves on with her life. If birth or should I say life, begins a conception, a woman who aborts a child should be thrown in jail and be charged for murder. What is the difference
