Whats your opinion on abortion?

Question

are u pro abortion? or not?

do u feel a baby has the right to live or its the mothers right to dictate her babys life.

scientifically babys arent alive until they pop out the euturs but sum ppl dont believe that., i personly think its the mothers choice to do what she wants and whats best for her. watever that may be but whats your opinion?

Answer 1

Today you may think it's o.k. to abort.  The problem is years from now you'll see a small child playing somewhere and wonder if you did the right thing.  

Answer 2

this is a VERY sensitive question, kuddos to you for asking it.. but it can get messy...

i'm prolife. I had my son at 16 years old... im 23 now....

id have 10kids before i have an abortion.

maybe even 20... id never have one .....

i didnt have one at 16... why would i have one at 23

i look at his face, and say it coulda have been him.. i coulda lost him if i made that choice... no... he has every right to live ...... as much as i do.  

Answer 3

Until the fetus is able to live on it's own outside of the woman's womb, then it is a parasite. If it was murder it wouldn't be legal.  

Answer 4

Its awful!!!  How can you say that a baby is not a live until they come out. The baby has a heartbeat the baby sucks on its hands and thumb. the baby plays with its feet and hands. They move around and kick and all the things that a baby does when its born.  

Answer 5

I'm very pro-choice, I believe it is a woman's choice to have or not to have the baby.

I think it is wonderful that we have a choice in the USA, thanks to "Roe vs Wade". I had an abortion in the 1960s and yes, it was an illegal one as well, this was my only recourse.

I also do not consider it to be a baby until it is fully developed, can breathe and survive outside the womb. I do think if it is necessary to help a newborn breathe with artificial means, this is perfectly acceptable.

Somehow, it is impossible for me to see a tiny worm-like creature as being a complete human being, simply because...It is not.

Also, this is the woman's choice...when you take away this choice, you are condemning women to death. Many women in the days before Roe vs Wade, took the chance with those who performed abortions and died because of non-sterile conditions. I consider myself one of the lucky ones to have survived, I literally owe my life to members of a certain motorcycle club in Oakland, CA.

Answer 6

I had a whole response typed out, but I'll leave it at this.

I'm against 100%

Some places do allow abortion really late.  I've read up until 7 months.  My multiples were born at 25 weeks which in some places they would have been allowed to be aborted.  They were tiny, they were in the hospital a long time, but they are now happy, healthy, and very smart and doing wonderful.  It breaks my heart when I think that a baby could be aborted anytime (because I believe it's murder), but thinking about them being the size or larger than my babies were is just not right and I don't know how someone could live with them self.  

(Edited to add:  That may not have been in the United States.  I'm not sure where it was located.  But according to research Canada has no restrictions on abortion so it may have been there)

Answer 7

i wouldnt have one..if ur having s*x than u should know that thats how u end up pregnant

however : to each his own... and everybody mind ur own business

ps i read ur entire question

Answer 8

for all of the people who say its wrong, you have obviously never been in a position where one may be necessary.  

Answer 9

Well, no, babies arent scientificlly "only alive when they pop out". they're alive ALOT  sooner than that, its  just a matter of if they can SURVIVE outside of the womb.  

Answer 10

I used to think differently about abortion until in the past couple years I saw the pictures/videos using the latest technology of babies in the uterus. Once I saw how quickly they form into little people I changed from thinking abortion was kinda acceptable to thinking that it is basically killing a baby & very regrettable. Of course it may be understandable for special circumstances but anybody who thinks about doing it should do some research & see what is really happening to that baby

Answer 11

Abortion is not okay. I don't care what the mothers reason is, every baby deserves to live. If the woman can't take care of her baby, then she should have the baby and put it up for adoption. Teenagers shouldn't abort either. It's their fault they had s*x at a young age.

Answer 12

My opinion is that every human being should have the right to live. I'm 15 and I wouldn't have been here if it weren't for my mother. My mother was 15 when she was pregnant, and she could've aborted me like a lot of teenage mothers do. But she chose adoption. And that's the reason why I'm alive. Every human being should have the right to live. But I'm not one who would go out and start prostesting. People also have rights to their own opinions.

Answer 13

Show me where you have read that scientists say it is not life, until the babies come out.  It is nowhere my friend. Scientists have proven that there is life from the moment of conceptions. Hearts beat at 3 weeks after conception. A few weeks after that, you can see the heart beat and hear the heart beat.

Your 13 year old friend, got pregnant.  She has a responsibility to care for the child that she created, and that caring includes giving life, and then placing for adoption.

You asked our opinion on abortion, so why are you so angry, when people say it is wrong.  If you did not want to hear that, why ask?  I understand you yourself would not want to abort, and that is wonderful, however you think it is ok for a woman to decide that for herself, let me ask you a question. If a friend of yours came to you angry at a neighbor, and cannot stand the neighbor anymore and said he wanted to kill the neighbor. What would you tell him?  " I would not kill the person, but you choose to it is fine?"  That sounds ludicrous.  Murder is murder, it should not be the choice of the woman, because she is choosing to stop the life of a child, that had life from the moment of conception.

Answer 14

really it depends. i am all for adoption if you cant take care of the baby because i know a bunch of women a couple in my family due to medical reasons they cant have any of their own and would love to adopt. but also if you were raped or medically could not do it then yes i believe that an abortion is okay. but i still dont like it.

Answer 15

I feel that adoption is better.  I am NOT pro abortion.  Although i DO believe that the government should have control over these drug addicts and haveing to get their tubes tied.  There is always adoption.

Answer 16

ABORTION IS WRONG. I UNDERSTAND THAT MANY WOMEN ARE NOT READY FOR MOTHERHOOD WHEN THE BECOME PREGNANT, BUT THAT IS ALL THE MORE REASON THAT THEY ARE NOT READY TO HAVE s*x. IF ITS IN THE CASE OF RAPE, THEN IT IS SOLEY UP TO HER. HOWEVER EVEN THEN, AFTER GOING THREW SOMETHING THAT TRAMATIC, I THINK IT WOULD BE WORSE TO HAVE AN ABORTION BECAUSE THAT TOO IS VERY TRAMATIC. IF YOUR WOMEN ENOUGH TO HAVE s*x, THEN YOU SHOULD BE WOMEN ENOUGH TO TAKE CARE OF THE CHILD YOU CREATED DURING THE PROCESS! AND I DISAGREE WITH THE BABY NOT BEING ALIVE UNTIL IT IS BORN. WHILE PREGNANT, YOU FEEL THE BABY MOVING INSIDE OF YOU, HOW IS THAT NOT ALIVE ENOUGH? YOUR BABY HAS LIFE THE MOMENT IT IS CONCEIVED AND HAS A HEARTBEAT 23 DAYS LATER!

Answer 17

A one year old can't live on its own but does that make it "not viable outside the womb?" I am against abortion even in the case of rape, because I don't think it's fair for anyone other than God to decide whether or not a life that is already a life, shoud live. I don't know where you are finding these scientists that say a pre-born baby is not alive because I've never heard anyone say that, even when learning about fetal development and all that where any scientist that would know (although more likely a doctor) is probably the one writing these textbooks and articles. Either way scientists say a lot of things that aren't true and they disagree with each other all the time so you can't really trust that as a source.

If there is a pregnant woman (or girl) that gets pregnant no matter how and decides it is best for her not to keep the baby, she has 2 options. She can abort the baby as soon as she finds out which would be probably between 1 and 3 months pregnant because I don't think any abortions past 3 months or so are legal, so we'll say that for argument's sake. Or she can hold off for 4-6 more months and have a different kind of medical procedure (aka giving birth), both with probably about the same recovery time after the fact, and give up the baby. I guess it's a matter of, "Is that 4-6 more months of being pregnant worth making the decision to kill what would grow up to be a human being just like me? Be a child just like I was? Start off sucking my thumb and kicking my foot to the Beatles music just like my mom played while I was in utero?" There's plenty of information on just how quickly sperm and egg become a living being with a beating heart and a fast-developing personality, and it's before most women even know they are pregnant, so no, I don't think it's the mother's right to end that life.

Answer 18

Ok I did a paper in school on abortion. And I went to this clinic, and there was 25 girls there to abort there baby. 2 of them back out, so I was talking to this one girl she had 6 abortion in 1 year!! Ok, I see it this way, Glove it, or you will get PREGNANT!! Dah! Did WOMEN get sooooo stupid when we grow up or something, we learn about s*x ed in middle school, so everyone has their OWN CHOICE!! yes, I am open, but would never do it!

Answer 19

I am TOTALLY against abortion.   I dont care what science says-a baby is a human being from the time they are conceived-not the time they pop out of the womb.  

Answer 20

I once watched this show about abortion.Turns out that they really do suffer anyways,even if they are not fully formed,it is still a beating heart.This girl was going to have an abortion and they were going to put a ultrasound machine on her while the abortion was made and even if she was only a few months pregnant you could see that the baby did suffer from it anyways.The baby would twist,turn and even open his mouth(like yelling) from the pain that it was causing him.I have always been against abortion because even though that the woman is not ready to have a baby she could give it up for adoption to another family that can really love and care for the child.Did you know that most people don't do this because they say that they don't want to gain weight!!Do you think that a baby should be put through this just because they don't want to gain weight?I really don't think that is fair.They are the ones that had unprotected s*x and now someone else has to pay for it with his life.

Answer 21

I am not pro-abortion, and i dont think anyone is.  I am prochoice.  I believe its every womans right to decide what to do with her body.  Sometimes things happen, birth control fails, people are raped, maybe just not ready for a baby....whatever it is, its up to the woman.

This does not mean I agree with it as a form of birth control.  People need to be responsible for their behaviour.  

Just my opinion.  

Answer 22

A child is a child from the point of conception and you can't mess with that fact. I don't care who you are, it is murdering an innocent baby and it is wrong.

Answer 23

I'm not for abortion at all i dont agree with it and never will if some1 isnt ready for a baby they should have never had unprotected s*x or if they get pregnant by someother terrible degree do adoption a baby is a human and is alive from the day he or she is concieved i would never have an abortion even if my life depended on it never
