Running head: ABORTION 1

ABORTION 4

Before the Year 1973, the cases of abortion in the United States were scarce. However, there were the records from the experts that at least 200, 000 to 1, 200,000 carried out illegal abortion each year. Hence, this indicated that there was a magnitude of the induced abortion for many years. In the year 1967, the researchers confirmed the above estimate by inferring data from the survey that was conducted in a random manner. They came to a conclusion that at least 80, 000 induced abortion and mostly in an illegal way were performed nationwide every year. Hence, the availability of legally induced abortions in the US was gradually increased.

Reason against the legalization of Abortion:

Abortion is a compound tragedy: A tragedy cannot be answered with another. At times, the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy might be a tragic. Perhaps the baby has been diagnosed with a defect, or maybe the woman was raped, or even the woman’s life might be at risk. However, killing the kid will not erase the rape, the kind diagnosed with the defect cannot be cured by taking its life. And all the health issues cannot be avoided by avoiding the reality of another person.

Abortion punishes innocent persons: The crimes of a father should not kill the child. If the five years kid cannot be killed because its father was a rapist, then, this should also apply to the five months, unborn child. The child should not die because her father/mother was irresponsible; the kid is absolutely innocent. The unborn child is always innocent, hence, should never be punished. (Wetstein, 2006)

Advantages of the abortion illegalization

Through abortion, women have been able to minimize the suffering of their child: some fetuses might have severe disorders hence, the child when born, will live a very painful difficult life. Some of these disorders guarantee a death even after a severe, painful and brief life.

Abortion has supported the right to life: Most arguments only highlight the abortion as the termination of the unborn child. However, there are elements around the pregnancy that can lead to complication for the lady. Most women will have complicated pregnancies hence there is a significant risk of the woman’s life. (Mersky & Hartman, 2010)

Conclusion:

Denying the women an option to abort a pregnancy when her life is endangered would be like forcing her be Russian roulette. Hence, abortion should be legalized because all women have their right to make decisions affecting their reproductive systems thus they should be entitled to choose whether to carry their pregnancy or to terminate as they see.
