Abortion

Simple question: Is Abortion the act of killing a child, or no?

My position: In modern developed nations, abortion isn't necessarily killing a child, yet it is preventing what would become an independent human being from coming into existence. Although I think abortion should be legal because we, and almost all species, have been offing their young for thousands of years thus it must have some purpose.

 

It is a difficult question but i believe it is about when it occurs and under what circumstances. Tbh it's quite close to home for me but i think if child is perfectly normal then abortion has no place in civilised places where there is appropriate protection to prevent pregnancies in the first place. But if the child or whatever you wanna call it, has abnormalities then it should be the parents choice over whether they are willing and able to help and provide for the child.

 

I believe abortion is not the act of killing a child.
Thought quite a bit about this one since I have never really been asked the question but from my point of view am in support of abortion. It would be much better discarding it at 7 to 12 weeks of pregnancy than abandoning the child when born like an animal would, to which some people actually do.

 

go abortion go!

 

Sure, it's not killing a child. But you would agree it's preventing what would be a fully formed, live, and independent human being from coming into existence, right?

God forbid, your parents aborted you - Would there ever be another "Kling" in existence on this world? How do we account for the "uniqueness" of Kling being forever prevented/destroyed?

 

I believe it's the mother's choice if they want to bring this human into their life or not.

 

What about the father, who surely has an active role raising the child, does he not deserve a say?

 

Yeah you're right. I worded that wrong. Both parents have a part

 

Well, to be fair, there are a lot of people who do believe father's don't have that right. Thank you for sharing your opinion.

 

The topic of abortion pops up every now and then and is wildy discussed almost everywhere.

One thing is for sure, people are not of one mind about this matter - which, for me, clearly says
that making abortion either legal or illegal in a region, state or even the whole word would be illogical.

Let everyone decide on their own after an appropriate consultation with a psychiatrist, doctor.

EDIT: Just to directly answer your question, yes, it is.

 

Abortion, I do not think it is killing a baby until the baby has a heart beat. Once the child has a heart beat and you abort it then I (just me! this is my opinion!) do consider it to be baby killing. I know Hillary Clinton once said she was okay with "same day abortions" wether she still thinks that or not ill let that one rest. I do not think its the mothers choice if she wants to abort the child and it should not be used as a form of birth control. The only time im okay with an abortion is if its going to kill the mother of the child. If you dont want to have a baby either
1.) Dont get pregnant (aka dont have sex)
or
2.) put the child up for adoption - many people that cant have kids would gladly take the child.
Rape victim? - Adoption as well.
I also believe that the government should not be paying for any abortions unless its going to kill the mother as well.
I also believe adopting a child shouldn't be a expensive as it is (as many more children would get adopted if it were cheaper)
Many aborted children could have been the brain we needed to cure cancer, ya never know.

Let me say if you have ever gotten an abortion I will not judge you for that and if you are pro-choice that is your opinion and ill respect that.

 

Wait, Kling getting aborted is a loss to humanity?

...

 

Yeah it is preventing what would be a living independent human to which I agree and as some may find it cruel I accept it.

Loved that second lot mate great read!

 

If you don't want a kid, use protection or appropriate medication to prevent it. Pregnancy isn't a "Hey I changed my mind" sort of deal. Of course there are instances where the mother didn't intend on being pregnant so to me there's a lot of gray area on the issue.

 

Making abortion illegal will not stop abortion.
It will stop safe abortions.
It will bring back shady clinics, shady doctors, shady methods at shady prices (either so super expensive or so super cheap) and it will bring back abortions with pain, high risk of infection to the mother, risk of failure but causing the baby problems so theyre born with problems, or going up to ending up with mummy dead which is even worse than a fetus dead. amoung other things.

If the mother cannot abort and cannot afford to keep thr baby you are sometimes automatically sending that child up for adoption. I think honestly that would be worse than the abortion itself - you want to quite possibly make a kid miserable and missing a family because they may not be adopted, and/or never know their real family because they were?

Pro birth, not pro life.

Abortions are good.

Accidents always happen - a missed few pills, a broken condom, or even if you used it perfectly this stuff is like 98 or 99% effective, which means regardless of what steps you take, sex between a man and a woman could always easily lead to not so perfect outcomes

 

If you are not ready to be a parent or cannot afford it/don't want one. The best birth control that is 100% accurate is not having sex. You play you pay simple as that.
