Abortion is wrong because killing a baby is like killing the worlds future. Its killing something you’ve created, its a part of you. Your killing someone before you even get a chance to know them. They deserve the chance to live their life just as we are.

If your a teenager and you get pregnant and you make the choice to have an abortion your making the choice to kill your baby. Its not the babies fault its your fault for making one careless mistake that now is going to change your life. Now because of your mistake someone else is paying for it. When all they did was nothing. The reason most teenagers have abortions is because their not mature or responsible enough to handle a innocent baby, but i’m sure when their parents found out they were going to have a baby they didn’t even think about killing their child. When you went out into the world your plan probably wasn’t to go out and get pregnant, but it happened so you have to deal with your mistake. In real life you cant just kill your problems or mistakes away you have to deal with them. even if you don’t want to you still have to their not going to just disappear.

Abortions are not a small problem it is a big issue. 4,400 abortions occur daily, and 1,606,000 annually, just in the United States. Worldwide 53 million a year and one million per week. Now out of those numbers 79.4% of the women are unmarried. 26.6% are teenagers, and 20% of the women are repeat customers. Killing a baby once is bad enough, but doing it twice is twice as bad. Wouldn’t you have learned from you first mistake?

Abortion is not the only option to your problem there are other choices you can make. There’s adoption or foster care. To all of you out there who have had an abortion have you ever considered the other possibilities? Like adoption, or foster care. Instead of killing your baby why not give it to someone who wants a baby, but can’t have one. A person who would kill to be in your position. There’s always a reason things happen, and you have to make the best of it. And abortion is not the answer.Think about how it would feel if you were aborted.

When one child dies many other people along with that will never be created.

    An interesting topic…a good one. In my own opinion though if the baby was born to a teenage couple (which does happen like 16-18 years old) then the baby’s life won’t be good. Anyways you put some reasoning behind your perspective and it was pursuasive. And I really like your closing statement

    Kudos
