Abortion Has Been One Of This Country's Most Controversial Topic
On Hand
Abortion has been one of this country's most controversial
topic on hand. But if one sees the constitutional infringement to
women by the restriction of abortion, the torment to the unwanted
child and the anguish society has to sustain,then this topic
would not be so debatable. Too many people do not see the cause
and effect of not being able to have abortions.
All human beings are given some inalienable right guaranteed
by the Constitution. One of those privilege is the right to
pursue happiness. A baby can sometimes disrupt a woman's pursuit
of happiness. Even if she decides to give it up for adoption,
she still has the burden of carrying the fetus for nine months.
Having the option to perform an abortion can solve that obstacle.
Taking away this right would be invading on a woman's
constitutional liberty.
The unwanted child also suffers. Most of the time the mother
of the unwanted child is very young and inexperienced or too poor
to take care of the child. The child is usually malnourished,
has no medical care, and gets very little attention or love. The
foster care system isn't any better. Only a small percentage of
the children are adopted by suitable parents. But the rest
remain in the foster care system, where there is little or no
personal care. In both cases, the child has a poor education
because of the lack of attention and discipline. He grows up to
be unproductive individual or a menace to society. Many get
involved in drugs and crimes. These individuals are also very
violent, lacking morality due small amount of care they received
themselves. In the long run, not only does the child suffer but
also society, who has to tolerate his violent behavior and
crimes.
An abortion can be seen as putting the child out of misery
while he doesn't have the ability to reason or fear.
In short, abortion allows a woman to retain her
constitutional rights, it relieves a would be suffering child out
of his distress and it establishes a safer and more peaceful
society. On these grounds, abortion should be kept legal, and
even encouraged to specific individuals, for benefits to all of
us.
