<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">I believe abortion is wrong and against the human values, but in my opinion there shouldn’t be a law to prohibit abortion completely, because in some circumstances abortion might be the right choice for a woman, who has the right of free will. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">The year 2013 marked the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide in the United States. The law bans on abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Although couple of years passed after the Supreme Court decision, a new study from the Guttmacher Institute reports that as many as 22 states enacted 70 provisions aimed at curbing access to abortion. The debate over whether or not abortion should be a legal option continues to divide Americans long after the US Supreme Court's decision. In over fifty countries all around the world abortion is still illegal, for example in Syria or Brazil.

<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">There are a lot of reasons why there should be a law to prohibit abortion. For me personally the most important one is, that everyone has to deal with their consequences, so you’re able to learn out of your mistakes. If you’re just doing an abortion, especially young girls might not realize the meaning of getting pregnant, because they were able to undo it. And that’s why it could happen again. Another reason is that women are losing a part of themselves and will have a hard time to get over their lost. Something, they are just able to realize after it’s too late. A law to prohibit abortion would save these women to make the wrong decision. Furthermore an abortion might be the reason some women won’t be able to get pregnant again. The law would take that risk. Other huge reasons are the religious and human values of course. It’s not humanitarian and very egoistic that you look on why it’s not good for you to have a child in your life- every baby has the right to live. Every human being on our earth is promised an equal life, but if someone can decide if you’re supposed to die or not, and some other child is allowed to live, that’s not fair. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">In addition to that abortion kills the most helpless. Isn’t it at least wrong to “have killed me before I was born as it would be to kill me now”?

<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">But there are a lot of reasons why there shouldn’t be a law to prohibit abortion too. In my opinion the most important one is that the pregnant woman might not be able to handle the situation being a mother and responsible for raising a child. In addition to that a child costs a lot of money and time. I think there are a lot of reasons, why a woman should be allowed to do an abortion. I wouldn’t judge someone who was raped and know she wouldn’t be able to look in the eyes of the child and be remembered every day for the rest of her life and before it’s like that, I think an abortion is more than understandable.The woman would have more time for her education, especially if she is pregnant in a young age. Today a good education is the key to a better future. For a lot of people who are against abortion there is the argument of adoption. But is it really an opportunity to let a baby grow up without the parents, being probably the rest of his life broken and unhappy, and maybe ending up his whole life in a foster home. Is that fair?

<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">Religious Values are a huge point too. In some religions being pregnant is such a shame, that it’s sometimes for the safety of the woman to do an abortion and no one will ever know about the pregnancy. And there are other reasons like if the women’s life may be at risk carrying a baby to this term. If it’s something just for one pregnancy, would you let your wife dying as an husband or would you try to save your wife and maybe try getting pregnant another time? Wouldn’t you at least want to have the right to decide that? What is if you know your baby wouldn’t really have the opportunity to live. Is it okay to just keep that baby alive. Is that fair?Furthermore the fetus isn't really a human being until a few weeks after conception.- Another way to see it is that it’s the women’s right to make this decision. Every woman has the right of free will. <span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS",cursive; font-size: 130%;">In Conclusion I still agree with my thesis. Even though there are a lot of arguments why it would be a good idea to prohibit abortion completely, I think there are enough reasons on the other hand to show that it wouldn’t be a good idea. Most important for me is that "I think that all pregnant women should have choices about their pregnancies, with no exceptions, and I support laws requiring both abortion and continued pregnancy to be available" and “Our faith tradition teaches freedom for religion and freedom from religion.” In my opinion, everyone should decide for himself or herself what the right decision is. Everyone has their own story, their own reasons, and others should accept it. It should be more a discussion point why so many young people are getting pregnant and help to show them how it can’t happen. Abortion is happening too often for the wrong reasons, to make-up stupid mistakes from students.
