Abortion!!!




                                                Abortion or NOT? I think Not.

            I am on both sides with getting one and with not. There are different reasons why people want to get an abortion. Some want to get some because they got raped, abused, didn’t use a condom, or lack of birth control. I think they should get a abortion if it was rape or under age and they should have proof for it.
            If I was pregnant at this age I would want to have a abortion as sad as it is to say that I would I would not want to go around school looking like a whale and I want to go to college and keep my job. If I were pregnant I would loose everything and not have any educational goals. The abortion place should collect the proof and say yes or no. If you were raped why would you want to have the kid if you did not want to think about it let alone have a baby of the rapist. If you were older and just slept around and got pregnant I think they should have the kid because that was there own fault not being responsible. If it were lack of birth control I would go back on how old they are. If they are married or not or old enough to have it they should. Everything happens for a reason.
            One out of three women in the U.S. have an abortion by the time they are 45 years old. You have the option so if they took abortion away it would be dumb because its not like they have it and make you do it. You choose to walk through that door and do it or not. If you are 18 and under you must have both parents there so it’s not like there wouldn’t be adults to talk about it with there child or not to talk it over and be more responsible about it. It should be you to decide it is what is best for yourself.
