According to Ronald Reagan, "I have noticed that everyone who is in favor of abortion is born." This suggests that people who want an abortion or who support the idea of ​​abortion do not realize that they have been given a chance at life. “Of the approximately 182 million pregnancies that occur in developing countries, more than a third are unwanted; 19% end up with an induced abortion. Of these 19%: 8% are safe and 11% are unsafe” (Department of Reproductive Health and Research, World Health Organization, October 2007). For many years, abortion has been the subject of discussions within families, countries, continents and organizations. Before going any further, here is a clear definition of abortion: (Chambers Dictionary, 1999) “it is the removal of the fetus from the uterus during the first months of pregnancy. This can be spontaneous or provoked. The process is very painful and yet people continue to do it. Abortion is not only practiced by unmarried women or girls; it is also practiced by married women. In fact, some husbands even persuade their wives to have one. But some of these couples are usually faced with this big question; “ARE WE SURE WE WANT TO DO THIS?” » This essay will show you the reasons why parents should not be allowed to choose whether they want to keep an unwanted fetus and why the baby should live. Every child; those born or unborn have the right to proper care and love and, above all, they have the right to live. An unborn child, also called a fetus, needs the utmost respect from its parents, because without them, they would not have had it. It is a reward for their action, whether it was a mistake or knowingly. One way to show this respect is to not even think about deciding whether or not to commit suicide. Do you know...... middle of paper ......e was quite low in Scotland, there were an estimated 14,000 abortions and around 40 carried out each day. The risk of women losing blood during surgery is approximately 0.01% of abortions” (Health Center, 2009). Even if this figure does not scare you, realize that your own wife, friend or sister may be part of this category of women who suffer from uterine complications. In addition, according to the latest research, women who have removed a fetus have an increased risk of developing breast cancer. A group of scientists from the University of Colombo in Sri Lanka say that women who have had an abortion are very likely to develop breast cancer later in life. This is a fourth study proving this link between breast cancer and abortion. Pro-life groups suggest that this report be brought to the attention of women. So they are experiencing a future side effect of the abortion” (Caldwell, 2010).
